we disagree about what is horrible trip is. he moved prematurely, but he also had nothing left when it counted. hes a closing sprinter.
Keep taking shots at me... Does it make you feel better about your shitty opinion? I dont ever remember a year where I said only 3-5 horses can win the derby, of course everyone likes a few horses every year but even last year I thought anyone could win, this year is different the top 3 and even 5 to some extent really stick out.

Instead of playing the victim, you really need to try and understand why Noble's Promise ran better than Dublin (and Lookin at Lucky) in the Rebel.
Whether he needed the race and figures to go forward is really not the issue.

I think Ice Box sucks. I think he won a bad edition of the race and wont make any noise in the Derby.

maybe not. but if given the option of betting him or dublin in the derby, i will go with ice box. he at least has two wins going two turns.
