Smiling Tiger's form has been pretty spotty since his huge effort in last year's Malibu. He made no impression on octogenarian Euroears in the Palos Verdes, broke like crap and just edged uber-bridesmaid Captain Cherokee in the San Carlos, whipped cream puffs at Oaklawn, then was nowhere Derby Day. From day one he's been campaigned aggressively and one has to think off his latest performance that he's finally come undone.

That said, if he is toast, Freddy will come on here and say that it was the loss to Twirling Candy that did him in.

FWIW, Smiling Tiger had an awful trip at Churchill.

Yeah, you're right. I was too busy watching my Donald Dizney overlay get nipped by the one horse in that race I didn't want to see win.

I guess I'll wait for the Triple Bend before making any predictions.

Smiling Tiger is a lot more sprinter then Trapp Door.. obviously Twirling Candy is on a completely different level sort of like Ghostzapper a horse special from 6 to 10f's.. Rolho start your eclispe spin asap.. This east coast nonsense has to end, i realze Ntam and BTW get their butter breaded and chicken choked from NY tracks but at some point yield to a champion like Da Candy Man.

On a serious note Smiling Tiger will eat Trap Shots lunch he is a lot better

I like this.

I'm leaving this up on the chalk board for all my classes to enjoy, giving you full credit, of course Mr. Mo.

He missed both races at Belmont he was pointing for also, right?
