caracortado at 50/1 seems like a good play to me.

Not at all Joseph.

This crop, while not the worst in recent memory, certainly isn't that deep or good.

I fully expect this horse to run a big race if he goes to the Ky Derby.

I fully expect him to run 15-20th.

Actually, I didn't want your opinion on him in the first place, but since you asked, why do you think so little of him?

We agree on something. Toss the last. Look at the horse who won the Tokyo Stakes yesterday. He Couldn't get up against that Bernstein horse in the 5th race on the same card. Out wide wasn't the place to be that day. That's why Zenyata was kept inside. Atkinson isn't as smart as Smith. Unfortunately, they are calling for rain on Thursday. So, it wouldn't surprise me if the track is irregular again next Saturday. CARACORTADO has a huge heart. Don't underestimate him. Right now, I'd need at least 50/1, because he's a little small to be holding on(late) going 10f. Yea, it's important. Look at the difference in head size between the 2 top finishers in the Dubai World Cup. Also, he's 32nd (or whatever) on the graded money list. If they put a bad one in next Saturday, most of those horses in the Santa Anita Derby will be in bad shape. He's worth 50-1.

In other words, Caracortado got a perfect trip in the RBL and just about the best trip one could ever imagine in the CBC. When it came time for him to show that he could run without the best possible trip, he clunked up for 3rd in the SF. Wake me up when this guy runs an against the grain race.

I'm saying throw out the races that took place at Anita on March 13th. You see that little rat trying to hold on from the 1 hole against Zenyata? They couldn't run that hog down for place. I know that was a fkd up inside speed biased track. Look at the huge move from Interactif on the turn. That's an inside move. Caracortado wasn't getting his moneysworth out there. He ran his same race, but he was running on a much heavier surface than the top 2 were running on. The horse who won the 5th? Never been able to hold on before at Anita. No matter how slow the pace. He'd always been caught. March 13th he found something he really liked. Tap It Light couldn't get to him with the wide move (same as Caracortado couldn't make up ground out there.) Tap It just came back to win the Grade 3 feature on Saturday. You should excuse horses that tried to make outside moves on March 13th. No matter what this guy does next, excuse anybody trying to make a wide move on March 13th.

Caracortado has about as much chance to win the Derby as me and the Fat Man in a horse suit.

Next.

Still can't believe Aikenite has been in every future pool.

That "Derby Super Test" might not help you any.

You haven't paid yet for that obnoxiously bad opinion you had last year. That horse was so bad I can't even remember its name. I wanted to say Chocolate Candy, but this horse was so bad that even Chocolate Candy would whip its ass.

And, by the way, congratulations....I see you have added anti-semite to your already impressive resume.

and the two of you riding a tandem bike? TFM might be able to utilize some of the race riding tactics he has picked up at his local velodrome.
