Why not have a discussion about the horse? I don't think he has much of a shot either, but it seems worthy of a discussion. You really want/expect him to tell you who he's going to bet on already? That seems a bit premature. PG85 made his argument about why he liked the horse's debut, and although I don't entirely agree with it, he did make some points.

i have no problem with a discussion, everyone has put out some pretty valid points. But i don't think its productive to just defend a horses chances for the sake of conversation. it almost seems like he's taking the middle on this horse, thinks he has a chances, but wont bet on him.....well i think that about every horse in every race... i just don't make a production about it.

that being said i stand by what serling posted earlier... Bunky has no shot for win in my opinion, though his maiden voyage was impressive he didn't appear to be a world beater, i think the owner/trainer is beating a lot of pots and pans and the media is eating it up.
