Just once on the internet I would like to see someone praise a first time starter, that didn't come close to winning, and be even mildly right about the horse's future. Sorry KG, but seeing a thread predicting big things from a hyped up three time winner, with decent speed figures, is like telling me that Kate Beckinsale is pretty.

For whatever it's worth (surely nothing), I said I thought he was a really good one after his second race. After this third one, I'm not only predicting big things but historically significant things.

Hmmm well there goes my prediction of Tiago being horse of the year

The good news for you is he will probably give you the old " he got hurt " excuse so this silliness will never be definitively exposed.

I do admire your optimism. Myself I'm trying to wade my way through a bunch of $16K maiden claimers. I know where my bread is buttered.

The horse is already 4 and you expect this one to be great? How is he ever going to beat Zenyatta this year?

I did that once with Cool Coal Man.

Oh wait. That was you. My bad.

Does the time I did that very thing with Sunday Break count?

(It might have been his 2nd career start, however.)
