He may win the Preakness (I hope he does), but there's no way in hell he's getting 12 furlongs.

His past performances take precedence over his breeding IMO. He hung badly in the AR Derby and got his last quarter yesterday in about :26.55.

In fairness to SS though, he really wasn't that far off a suicidal pace.

The pace Conveyance set over that surface was crazy. That was one of the better 40+ length loss performances I've seen in awhile.

This is why I said Noble's Promise ran well, and our resident genius handicapper disagreed.

Yeah, I like NP. He's a pretty gutty horse. Why the love for Jackson Bend and not NP is a bit of a mystery.

Which genius capper are you referring to? There are many to choose from.

I'd love to see Super Saver's splits if anybody already has them. I'm too lazy right now.

Thanks. I'm guessing it will be tough to win the Preakness with that same run.
