Hey, I mean, SHug thought the horse ran HUGE against Einstein.

Nice to see you're still going on about it.
I have a lot to learn, regardless of his previous trips like others have said his form has been getting better and better. I thought the race would set up nice for him to close, and I got lucky. You act like he is a dog who ran against all stars and got lucky enough to have that perfect trip. Douglas on him was also a huge plus for me.

with the turf division as wide open as it is, and it is WIDE OPEN....... dancing has to be considered a top 3, in his division, einstein is poorly handled and i belive dancing still has some room to improve.

I think we ought to have a "Pick the top 5" contest with a naming deadline and whomever picks the most horses that remain at years end wins.

Just sayin

1)Curlin
2)Big Brown
3)Zenyatta
4)Benny the Bull
5)Magnificience
