Nobiz...

[blackthroatedwind]

I agree that he ran very well in the BC and probably would have won it more in 20 runnings than the winner would have.

I think this is probably true.
And I had the winner.
Still think Nobiz does some
funky things. Its cool he has
shown talent on both surfaces.

He just has some weird habits
I have seen that make him a bit
unpredictable. I would not call him
adaptable once a race is underway.
No doubt he is talented and more
importantly fun to watch.

The main point of the original poster is that NoBiz and his connections should be admired for running him 10 times this year, and I agree wholeheartedly with that.

Besides, I've got money on Sniper's over.

I'm still undecided as to whether I should be very impressed by Nobiz's performance in the BC Mile or whether it was simply a reflection on how terrible the Mile Division was this year.

As opposed to last year?

I tend to agree with you. But he's OK.

Last year was pretty terrible too but I think Aragorn was probably a better horse than any in the Mile this year, not that that is saying much.

We're in trouble, Jim. I just checked and there are only 2 threads in the first 3 pages of "The Paddock" that have crossed the 100-post mark. (Insert "get a life, dude!" here) One of the 100-post threads is the durable "Retirements". The other thread is titled "Street Sense", and as nice a horse as Nobiz is, I don't think he can beat Street Sense.

Always liked this horse and hope he runs for a couple more years. He's a big glutz of a horse and feel if he's allowed to keep running, he'll grow into a monster.

For those not impressed, sure he's not the very best, but has proven alot as a three year old. Our mind sets are so geared to NOW, NOW, NOW..oh wait that's another horse. What I mean is NObiz is still young. I think he gets way better with age.

As for 100 posts...where's Morty when you need him?
