That does remind me though of a time I caught a California King snake when I was twelve years old. He was a big one, and when I caught him, he bit me, the only time I've ever been bit by a King snake.

I decided to name him Nebuchadnezzar.

Two days later he laid six eggs.

Triple Crown Winner this year....go 'head laugh

Very solid work for a horse not bred to be a freakish 2yo. His success at 2 in spite of the breeding indicates quality. He had (and has still) a very smooth efficient stride. The pedigree is very deep with stamina yet he shows high quality speed, presumably from the Distorted Humor on top.

Arch had high quality speed and I'll Have Another's dam won her only start wire-to-wire.

As for juvenile success, 8 of the 12 horses in the first two generations won at least one race at 2. 5 of those 8 were stakes performers. 4 of those 5 were stakes winners. 3 of those 4 were graded stakes winners. 2 of those 3 were Grade or Group 1 winners. 1 of those 2 was a Eclipse champion 2yo.

Rollo, what do you mean exactly by the bolded part? Twelve horses in the first two generations?? Shouldn't that number be six?

>>>But win or lose, I am backing my Triple Crown prediction with some of the money I collected for having bet on I’ll Have Another at 23-1 in Kentucky Derby Future Wager Pool Two. I am playing “yes” in the Triple Crown proposition wager offered by the Wynn Hotel Race & Sports Book in Las Vegas. “Yes” is plus 700, meaning you have to wager $70 to make $10. “No” is minus 1,000, meaning you have to wager $100 to make $10.<<<

I don't think he meant to say this, did he? I don't bet sports, honestly have no idea but I would think plus 700 means you get 7-1, which is a horrible sucker bet in my mind.

He had to have been confused and clearly wrote it backwards. If casinos could get those kind of odds on every prop then they wouldn't be looking to replace sports books with slot parlors.

Yeah, I was going to comment on that too. That was the highlight of a pretty ridiculous article.

[10 pnt move up]

So White's system paired the race down from 20 to 14? Hard for a system not to work year after year if it includes so many horses.

[Danzig]

a poster said white would be the best handicapper on this site if he joined....i disagree. that article hasn't changed my opinion one bit.

Probably better off wagering him to just win the Preakness at what will likely be half the 7-1 he is getting on the impossible.

[The Bid]

If hes Plus 700, each 10 is 70. If hes minus 700 each 70 is 10.
