5/1 (CD): Kentucky Oaks (G1)

You are dismissing horses with form, whether it is as good as some might think or not, for a horse with no ability. Bullsbay sucks. Did you take a close look at his last race? I don't think so....or you wouldn't be picking him. The Hal's Hope? Come on. Bribon didn't show.....and the rest of the field was hopeless. Look who was 3rd. Would you like him here? I guess you're betting him in the Belmont 8th on Friday.

Like him or not, Mambo in Seattle has run on two synthetic tracks and two sloppy tracks since the Travers, so intimating that he hasn't had excuses in those races is wrong. Now, he might get a wet track on Friday, but otherwise he has a license to beat these. Cool Coal Man was not particularly good last time....but he may be pretty loose here. He's certainly a better horse than Bullsbay ( as, of course, is Mambo....at least on a dry track ). You think Macho Again is a deep closer? I don't. Now, he may move up in the wet, but he's also a better horse than Bullsbay. Ready Set does suck....he still may be better than Bullsbay. I have little interest in the others. Frankly....I don't have a great deal of interest in the race. I just think Bullsbay is a joke. But, hey, if he's 15:1, good luck. Don't let me talk you off of him.
