I really did not see the question.
I thought the horse was as likely as anyone, the race sucked and I even wrote that I thought it was ripe for a firster to pop. A lot of luck went into the pick, but the 4/90 work was pretty strong, or 3/74 or something strong like that. Im not saying I bet the horse, I did not bet it, I did not bet anything today, but that horse totally bailed me out as my top pick ran second 6 times today and I went 1/9 overall, so yea when that horse won at 13-1 I was excited.

How many horses have 4/90 and 3/74 works and run like ass? I'd say plenty.

The horse worked in :34.80 Thursday. . . a full second faster than the next fastest worker. I didn't look at this race before now, but that sort of hint at early speed in the type of race where most of your winners will be on or near the pace seems like a relevant and potentially valuable piece of info.

Could have pegged you for some sort of retarded ******* cocky response.
Instead of saying yea good pick, even I said it was a lucky pick in a wide open race, you just dont stop.

I'm trying to start a productive discussion with you as to the value of printed workouts you mook.

A loosely adhered-to marketing term used to refer to an adolescent to twentysomething male who shows off and makes a scene of himself.

I googled.
