Went The Day Wrong

[cmorioles]

Can somebody tell me about this "good race" he ran in the Derby? I've watched it several times and all I see is a well beaten clunk up 4th after a very fast pace.

I think some Americans just bow down to foreigners. Clambaked is one of them.

I admit I got tricked by that race and Doug was right to call me out on it. That said, compared to this crop I would not conclude that this is a turf only horse whose connections are wrongly running their horse in these races which was the premise of this thread.

That's what I've been saying. Said the same about Dullahan in both the BC Juvenile and the Derby. We'll see how he runs at Belmont, but he won't be on top of my tickets.

I'm wondering if the shipping back and forth contributed to Creative Cause sliding back a bit, he was right there with these horses his last two, that ship back and forth was so unnecessary.

Didn't Bode ship as well? I just think he got hurt being closer to the pace yesterday and more importantly he's a notch below the other two.

Believe Bode stayed at Churchill and shipped up from Louisville.

I didn't like Creative Cause shipping back to Cali, but it obviously didn't bother him him at all.
