The horse got beat by that Skip'n pss horse. That horse couldn't even win the West Virginia Derby. So, don't you think it's odd that Joel just lets a horse (that got a lil late last time) just go as fast as it wants to go? Don't you think he got that confidence from somewhere? Like maybe the trainer told him just get clear, he ain't stopping today. I mean, one of the reasons the horse was able to break the record is they let him run as fast (early) as he wanted to run. For a horse who slowed up late last time, they were pretty damn confident that he wasn't gunna stop today. Just saying. They expect everyone to hit the turf surface change button, and not ask questions. also, a jock change to the top jock. They like to have these 2 factors involved, because it helps give people a reason for a big change in performance.

The performance was one of the best by any horse this year. Macias looked like Sham.

Tell ya, that Jenny has a tough time with that jaw, or whatever is wrong. All the money she has, and that's the best situation they can come up with for her? Damn.

Thanks for providing some context there.

She probably got MS from that crappy food she poisons people with.

The Mile could be the most contentious on the card. Makfi, the 2000 Guineas winner, beat both Goldikova and Paco Boy at Deauville today on very soft ground and his ultimate objective is the Mile as well. We don't know if Makfi's contemporaries Canford Cliffs and Dick Turpin, who have beaten him previously, are pointing toward the Mile, but if either comes it could be a barnburner. Dick Turpin is trying 10f on Tuesday at York and if he runs well, he may go the Irish Champion/Champion S (at Newmarket) route instead.

There have been some pretty good turf horses that didn't care for the turf course at Churchill. Seems like horses really bunch up there, and horses are forced to wait until the stretch, or make a tiring move outside of horses on the backstretch/ far turn. It just seems to have a tight feel to the configuration. Track position seems really important on that course.

No, she has some really rare problem. Jaw joint problem, or something unusual. Whatever it is, I wouldn't wish it on anybody.

i remember reading about what happened to her jaw. she had dozed off, and she said her head had tipped forward. something caused her to wake and she abruptly lifted her head, and her lower jaw actually locked over her upper jaw- her lower teeth were actually in front of her upper...she couldn't open her mouth and had to be rushed to the emergency room. its not ms or the like. something i had never heard of happening to anyone.

With my limited education and learnin, I do like to take shots and forget about the subtance.
I have always felt at home here on Derby Trail , considering the total sum of the collective I.Q. is around 100 when you remove the high and low.

Just once dude, will you at least provide some context when you make one of your posts that make no sense?
