the trainers usually have no problems having an asst take over-jorge lara is a perfect example of that.

I know ... the asst's always have about the same win percentage .. and a MUCH higher ROI ... betting horses of suspended super trainers .. especially at the cheaper tracks ... is a very good angle.

If this discussion, turned as it has,
is an accurate guage of the public's opinion
of Revenge, he would have been 3:5 favorite.

Kinda astounding.

Chalk Withdrawal Fit

QR, and IWR both gone= Gotham Chalkplayers looking for a corner with a Baby Bottle

I'm just devastated that a cheater and his supporters got to watch someone else win the Derby. ..Torn up.

BTW, HOSS, and DRUGS will huddle together n' all question whether it should have the Grade 1 reduced to a Grade 2.

Add Beyer to the list.
Forget the fact the track is an uncertain mess.

The ankle injury that knocked I Want Revenge out of the Kentucky Derby obviously changed the complexion of the race both as a sporting drama

-Stephon Beyerberry

No need to watch. The drama is gone.
No need to wager either. No mention of the track
being a problem.
