Somone better tell that to the connections and all of the people that have bet Dylan Thomas today. Good call guys!!!
whats wrong with an outlandish opinion? thats what a longshot is.
what you did wrong is that you hound certain peoples opinions over and over as if you are superior. of course it was likely that he would run, you're not a hero to point that out.

I also find it humorous that when I defend you, my tactics are okay. Otherwise you are so offended. Nice to know.
thats really funny, that you were protecting the accuracy of information for people who take this stuff seriously. let me ask you if you really think people who take this stuff seriously will look on this board and then read someones opinion that Dylan Thomas might scratch and then act upon it? thats the definition of someone that doesn't take this stuff seriously.

so, from the guy who fancies himself as the leader of the board predators, i'm bestowed the title of board robin hood? i'm honored.

People that bet a few days a year or not often, or newcomers to the sport come here looking for help I'd imagine. I just thought his declaration of 75% not to run was incorrect and remind me, is he running? Again, was I not civil when talking with him? Jim, where are you when people are talking about other posters family members? You have a real short memory man....

yeah, guys like me, bet twice a year. Tell you what all the Dylan smack talking on here did. It helped me drop the race all together. there are plenty of others.

Hate to say it, but they shouldn't have run him.

Not even hit the board!!!

I hope you all avoided him like the plague!

Very disappointed with Coolmore after that stupid decision. There was no reason to run him.

I can't say i was surprised though, as soon as he made the track he was going to get stuffed.

I haven't wagered today...and I couldn't be happier choosing not to. However, I have to take Curlin at 5/1.

Dylan didn't scratch. See what going overboard with speculation does?

j/k, prance.
