Why? Because he ran poorly? Hell if that was the case they would be shelling my house as bad as the last few i have ran have finished. Because his feelings are hurt?

If he ran poorly as a result of any physical distress, they will be all over it. They openly questioned whether he should be running when the quarter crack issues came up and now this? They will absolutely tie this together, whether they actually tie together or not.

Unless they are betting nothing they say has any validity. If I bet on BB I may be pissed (even i wasnt dumb enough to do that)

They also want to bring Larry Jones up on charges...only a simpleton would give them any creditability. You know some people think Hitler did some good things too...

I don't give them any credibility at all. But it's interesting that you bring up Hitler. On the flip side of that, not every organization that is as stupid as they are, is wrong all the time.

By saying that they have a valid argument, you are giving them a credtability. Anybody can make idiotic statements in public and gloat once in a while that they are right. That doesnt make them smart or creditabile. As a matter of fact that happens here on a daily basis.

Horses dont break down from quartercracks. There very well be an abcess underneath there causing him some discomfort but unless you have xray vision or a crystal ball you just dont know. Most of you have no understanding exactly how hard it is to train horses. It is the reason that some of us 'wonder' about the guys that seemingly make it look easy.

But if that's the case wouldn't he favor it? I'm asking..I have no idea...whatever it was, and I think it just wasn't meant to be.....as much as racing would like to have a tc winner, these connections are everything that horse racing does not need.....couldn't have turned out better....

Yep The gods have spoken... I don't know about anyone else here but when Big Brown ran up on heels and threw his head on the 1st turn, you just had a premonition that it might not be his day today. Obviously this was not the Big Brown we saw today in the first 2 legs of the triple crown, for a fan the race was really anticlimatic as compared to the other failed TC crownings, I'm not dissapointed he lost I just wish it were done more on merit, that someone took it away from him, as Birdstone had, Empire Maker, Victory Gallop, Touch Gold had all done prior to today. Big Brown basically beat himself.
