No problem. I obviously wasn't alone in liking her today (see place and show pools). The whole time prior to post I was frantically looking for your opinion of the race to possibly link up with your picking prowess for a nice, hefty exacta. Alas, your opinion was absent. Didn't really matter anyway b/c DMC ran like $hit, just chased and faded.

Seriously though, as bad as my heavily opinionated assertion seemed to look out there today, I'd much rather take a stand and lose (not a first) then to be a self proclaimed humorous, monday morning quarterback. Feel free to post your thoughts before the race is what I'm saying.

The jury is still out on the filly. Let's hope she comes back okay and just had one of those bad days that every horse encounters.

Well said, I'd much rather be someone who looks like a complete idiot posting their opinion (see the International Festival of Racing thread for my gems today) then a douchebag who finds joy in mocking someone's poor opinion.

Ah, yet another Cali runner takes down a G1 back east

And gets the best of Pletch chalk, to boot

Sweet


Nothing like drillin' them over those synthetics...

Nothing like drillin' them over those synthetics that thank God they're taking out so REALLY GOOD horses like Blind Luck don't have to look average over the stuff...

FTFY


...if you seriously believe the reason Blind Luck won today is because she trains over synthetic, you're even more hopeless than I thought. Blind Luck won today because she's the best 3yo filly, period.

I suck at handicapping, my last winning week was......well its been a long time.

I just thought your opinion was so poor it deserved special recognition. Keep it up I am sure you will find a 2/5 shot who will win for you.

I am sure, too, just as I'm sure I could handicap races better than you with my eyes closed. That says ALOT, seeing how poor I've been playing lately.

Maybe one of these days, you'll chime in on one of these threads before the race is run, and we all might be smarter and richer players for listening to you. But until then, stay posting the same stale $hit in a Zenyatta thread or something.

Or take me up on a handicapping contest, loser not being allowed to post on the board ever again. Put your laughably bad opinion up on the line against mine. Loser lurks forever. You'll probably chickenshit and pussyfoot your way out of it with a 'chalk eating weasel' cop-out with some clever line that you've conjured up over the past few hours. Let's see if you have any real ''move up's'' or you are just the lame person that you've painted yourself out to be all these years. In or Out, homey.

It seems like we might see Blind Luck, Devil May Care, and Havre de Grace show up in the Cotillion at 1 1/8.

If they run against Blind Luck again - they better allow DMC to get much more early separation than they had yesterday.

Give me a setup, other than a speed biased track where DMC gets to sit behind a 3 horse speed duel, where she beats BL or, even, HDG. Clearly, she can't run with these two in crunch time. Is she, essentially, done? Even at 9F, I don't think she beats these horses without a perfect trip.

Blind Luck completely out-ran Devil May Care yesterday. It's hard to find an excuse for DMC to be honest.

Blind Luck is legit, relative to the crop anyway. Her KY Oaks was an amazing performance.

Watch this race.
