Oh my gosh

[trifecta124]

If he is as good as everyone thinks, he should have won this race for fun. That is why he was 1/9. I saw no excuses.

Then you dont understand the game. When a horse whos a straight front runner has trouble like WP had thats whats giong to happen. Its absolutely disgusting that they didnt reset that horses head before they spring the gate

Toss nothing unless there was an injury. The start wasn't ideal, but he was nowhere when the running started.

Watch the race Trifecta. If you do not think a confirmed front runner missing a break makes a difference then I would question how much you know.

It makes a big difference, but a lot around here were making War Pass out to be a lot better horse than he actually is...

This horse needs everything to go his own way to win, and some of his previous performances were suspect because of track conditions and a lack of a challenge early.

[trifecta124]

Ok I don't understand the game.....Are you kidding. I have been listening to how this horse is the next secretariat for months now. He is a good horse and he had no excuses against a field as weak as this.

Why then didn't he just bull rush his way between the other two going into the turn? I can see the excuse for a speedball like him losing after the start but he didn't seem to show much at all in the face of adversity. Should have gone up on his own.

The horse has never been in that position before. Im surprised he didnt spit it quicker than he did. All a learning experience.

Alot better than he is? Until today hes an undefeated champion whos never had a horse with in a length and a half of him at any point in time, in any race.

Everything go his way? He needs the gate to open and have his head set. He just needs a fair chance like any horse needs. Hes the most talented horse in the country and its just insane that they dont do a better job in the gate for a race like that.

Yeah, all that, ok. But why didn't he go on as they were going into the first turn? Maybe the jock yanked him out of there but again, the loss is explained but why didn't he at least run through the first 1/4?

Maybe they planned toexperiment today anyway but I think he spit the bit with 1 Mile to run when he didn't push through those two on either side.

If you hate him, this race gives you a reason not to bet him.

If you love him, you can toss the race.

You are exactly correct.

I neither love or hate. He's a nice horse still but they all get beat.

I never thought that he was the most talented horse in the country. I certainly did think that he was better than what he showed today though.

if he can't handle that minor bump, or make any kind of a rally from third, then he's toast as far as the derby is considered.
