I only posted it to prove a point to Ateam who consistently says court vision is slow. If you care to read the whole thread then you will see his remarks prior to the Virginia Derby.
i read it when it first came out. to be honest, i think the whole debate is ridiculous. your opinion is one thing, some others, another. i happen to side with the 'court vision is really nothing to write home about' crowd. why you're so determined to make him out to be otherwise, i don't know. he's benefitted from the turf move, other than that, he is what he is.
winning a race doesn't necessarily make a horse fast. just faster than the others in the race.

I am not saying he is a world beater or one of the the best turf horses there was but he does not deserve to be called shitty or slow. He is fast, slow? you can argue back and forth. Everyone has a horse they want to pull for and this ones mine (win or lose).

ROFL! 10,941 posts and each one gets better.

You win and I get a much needed break of reading idiocy from the likes of you and others.

We decide on a track and we make mythical $2 win bets on the track for two days. Highest dollar amount wins and we'll cap it at something like $40 per race. Sound good?
Na. Not enough at stake. Not wasting time to cap just to see you not post. I rather read posts from synthetic track experts like yourself daily.

I agree, I was wrong about the the two tracks being alike. I was probably thinking DMR and Turfway being same.

Anyways, if you want a head-to-head match up then it will have to be next month at Hollywood Park meet (lets say Turf Festival weekend). My company is sending me to Washington for 4 weeks starting tommorow so i dont have time to cap nor POST anything on derbytrail (early christmas gift from me to you LOL!)

Like you said, 40 WP for two days (saturday and sunday). 20-1 caps on Win and 15-1 caps on Place. We each will send our picks by NOON Pacific Time
by Private Message only! The winner will be determined by best ROI. The loser meanwhile will post the results on this Forum and declare the other is better than the other for all to see. Agreed?

Seriously? In my opinion it has to be one of the worst beers of all time.
