Dutrows percentage is high at every venue he runs at, every damn one. Almost the same percentage across the board. Hes won at high % at CD(where he had a division this past spring), Gulfstream, Monmouth(where he has a division) NYRA tracks, and he shipped Offlee Wild to Suffolk to win the Mass Cap and Dutrow has won big races in Maryland(the General George AND the Barbara Fritchie), Pennsylvania (the PA derby), etc,
The argument that hes getting away with cheating in one specific jurisdiction is nonsense and holds absolutely no water whatsoever.
So genius you think hes fooling all these jurisdictions?

Yeah I am kind of tired about hearing that certain trainers drug and blah blah blah. Dutrow wins with his horses being in a detention barn.

Everything that's been said here about Silver Train and Lava Man is basically correct ... especially by Mike, as always ... and ...

... that's what distinguishes the truly great horses from the just-very-good ones ...

... they don't need to take their track with them ... they can run most any distance ... over most any type of track condition ... and still crush whoever has the courage to get into the gate with them.

Silver Train and Lava Man are top quality professional race horses ... but they don't scare anyone.

Where did anyone call Silver Train and Lava Man TRULY GREAT?

Ummm ... you see ...

... I was taking a small piece of datum ... and using it to make a more general point ... which you ... in your usual lovable way ... seem to have missed.

But now that I've explained it ... I'm sure the wattage has gone up in your thinking machine ... and you're most appreciative of my thoughts ... and of my sharing them with you.

Notice how Mike quickly picked up on it ... and expanded the thought. I encourage you to keep reading my posts ... and commenting on them. With a little practice ... some day you can be like Mike.

Wipe yourself for goodness sake.

Don't you get it? When BB misstates something he did it intentionally to make a more general point. When someone else misstates something they are an idiot that needs to go to the Remedial Reading Comprehension section of the forum. Never ever doubt Bold Brooklynite.

I agree, they are both great horses in their specified settings. Like Rock hard ten. But horses who win all over the place always get more respect. And horses who travel all over are bound to run into at least one surface(maybe two) that they can't handle.
I mean look at Bernadini, Gulf, Belmont, Pim, Saratoga. Enough said.
St Liam won at Bel, Gulf, Aqueduct, CD. Invasor has won in Uruguay, Pim, Bel, Spa. Horses like that always get first billing over specialists within certain venues. I think thats just common sense.
