You've posted some delusional rantings before, but this one takes the cake!! You asked? Gee thats great!! It was only reported in the Drf a few days ago that he would be running here and it was accompanied with a quote from exercise rider Simon Harris that he felt that he liked the Belmont track better.
Now see, we don't need to hear that from either of you to know that and you really need some sort of professional help for those delusions you suffer from.
lets see, he won the Jockey Club Gold Cup at Belmont, borke his maiden there, and won his first stakes race there as a two year old.
IN addition, he won a stakes race there earlier this year.
Thanks a lot for the "inside info".

No kidding rocket scientist. In yesterdays thread it was said repeatedly he would not run and that it was not true that he liked Belmont better. Where does this post say there is "inside information"? They said they were going to this race weeks ago instead of the race at Hawthorne.

This was also in the drf.
"I had him in the Kentucky Horse Park by the time he got to the gap, but when I got back to the barn [Velasquez] he was so excited," Tagg said. "I said to him 'What's wrong with him?' He said, 'I just eased up on him, the race is on Saturday.' "

I think you are the one with the problem. Please show me the post where I said I had inside information on him? All I said was yesterday morning they said he would be entered.

SOUNDS LIKE A GUY THAT JUST LOST SOME MONEY ON THE DQ.

I actually lost no money on the dq, i had the winner in the pik-4 as well. I lost money when tesher's horse won the next leg.
Now, back to your delusional rantings which is the matter at hand.
You just expressed yourself on this thread as if you had special info on the horse that noone else had. In fact not one but two different articles written in the DRF told us that he would run.
SO I guess that leaves me wondering what the point of your post was where you said that you asked?

Actually you were the one who said Barclay did not make this decision to run here on short rest. He definitely made the decision. Cornelio Velasquez helped too. The Empire Classic is the race they are targetting on the same track at the same distance.

Actually I just agreed with the earlier posted sentiments of two others on that thread Pinnochio.

"Thats hysterical. hes gonna run him back on short rest on the Brooklyn and you want me to believe its Barclay's idea?
I doubt that a lot."

Those were your words. He belongs here, that is how you know the owners did not make the decision.

I never questioned that he was going to run in this race, I would have bet that he was going to for sure.
If you say it's tagg's idea, then it must be true.

Sorry to interrupt.....

Maybe We Can Seek can (finally) get another win. It's been a while and he owes me quite a bit at this point.....

Multiple Group 1 winner, 3YO colt of the year (turf)..... a nice horse who might just remember how to win.

Almost anyone can win this race, that is how you know Funny Cide belongs. He could easily win or finish 4th, but this is the type of competition he belongs with. Wanderin Boy is the logical top choice.

Reverberate should be about ready to run his best race.

I don't know how good that will be ... but whatever he's got ... we should see it today.
