Now, he's a rabid Zenyatta fan for some reason.
By the way, do you still believe Z would have beaten NK?

Who knows.

At that time I just happened to be a big fan of Zenyatta off of her impressive first three wins... and John Shireffs has always been a favorite trainer of mine. You don't name your E-mail after High Wire Act if you're not a fan of that trainer.

I sure wish I could just bet the horse that will run the fastest fig...I mean my best bet on Day 1 was Red Desire and sure enough she ran the fastest in the race while finishing 4th. Of course when pea brain Kent is on her and goes 4W 4W in race with quite a few turns, it won't matter much.

They're callin Pletch a "robot" over at TC

Pretty funny actually


Anyway, better hope this young beast can pull some stamina from that pedigree bottom … cuz Pletch's current endurance building program (see the gutless QR) doesn't appear to be anything to write home about…

Yeah, you're right, he's only won a Belmont and a Kentucky Derby from the last 12 Triple Crown races. Throw in a BC Turf during that time period and he obviously has no idea how to train horses for distance races.

If someone started a poll of the most idiotic DT poster, who would you vote for, and who do you think would win?

I'm guessing RHT and Smoothness would win, but RHT wouldn't even belong in the top five lately.

Smooth Operator's posts pertaining to Zenyatta make RHT look like Steven Crist.

If I knew how to do a poll I would do it now.

They're callin you an imbecilic moron at DT.

Pretty true actually

Is Pletch's endurance building program the same one that brought us Rags to Riches a few years ago?
