Clearly was moving best of them all at the end. Was shut off, checked and re-rallied very well. I love the way he looks.

Not the best ride Prado has ever given.

perhaps the 'slow' part needs to move to another horses name....slow's tizzy perhaps??

if those two raced back against each other, I'd take NoBiz again.
the bad trip of Marcavelly seems over blown to me. saved ground on both turns and was for a moment blocked. NoBiz got kicked out on the first turn and lost significant ground. also for the simple fact that NoBiz is a faster horse than Marcavelly.

Slew's Tizzy displaced. Its pretty hard to run when your air gets shut off.

that's true. but that doesn't explain all his losses. but i'd make more of an argument for his name being slow than nobiz!

And I'd argue that the hype NoBiz recieved early in his career is the reason why people pay more attention to his performances than Slew's Tizzy and that is the reason why he is given nicknames.

that pretty well summarizes it.

i remain unimpressed after today's race.

i think my new nickname for him will be nohype like slowhype.

I think I would love to have a horse like him in my barn any day. True he isn't the top guy in his crop, but if he is so slow and so overhyped, why isn't his name the Green Monkey?
