you would have to ask, and say please.
To be fair, you proclaimed him the Derby winner after he was one of, if not the most talked about maiden coming out of the Saratoga meet based on his debut.

After he was beaten in his 2nd start you abandoned ship.

You're also the same guy who said Fire On Ice was built well and was sound and he made 1 total start after his debut.

But Quiet Chris is a good buddy for you to have. Water usually seeks its own level.

Fire and Ice ran horribly not once but twice after holding off Revolutionary. I'm pretty sure they got the money that day. Revolutionary probably ruined him by making him run too fast.

"One of, if not most talked about maiden races "

This must have been why he opened at 150-1. We were ready and he was 75-1 in a flash. This hoss has a will to win. did you see him in the Withers between hosses late ? he looked like Summer Squall bullying his way through traffic at Saratoga as a 2 year old. His mare won the Alabama, has a great turn of speed, is very athletic, and looks the part. = Derby/Preakness/Belmont

Try and follow a long. Fire on Ice was a Kimmel 2 year by Unbridled's Song who ran a whole in the wind in his debut. You were high and him and could tell he was built well. Built so well he has made a total of 2 starts in 4 years.

After Little Distorted whipped up on Revolutionary you and your buddy abandoned ship. Only to return after the Withers.

Revolutionary was easily the 2nd biggest hyped maiden to come out of the Pletcher barn at Saratoga based on his debut.

Typo, you knew I was talking about Little Distorted. ELO song Fire and Ice was on in the background (theme from CBS sports spectacular in 70's). so I typed the wrong hoss in.

You are right on Fire and Ice though. Looked like the goods, wasn't. Dead wrong on that hoss. What ever happened to that hoss anyway ?

Not sure who my buddy is, but I never jumped ship. He's gonna win. His biggest obstacle is that I love him so much.

Interesting that you keep knocking me, but not the hoss. That's a good sign.

He's one of like 10 who can win. I have no major knocks on him other than it will be a miracle for him to win carrying all that mush weight.

I'm afraid this is a weight that Normandy Invasion is soon to be toting as well. WAY too much chatter about him.

My thoughts exactly. I was hoping he'd be in the 20-1+ range on 5/4, but that looks unlikely.

Fire On Ice was Travers day 2012. He beat a Zito Bernardini and a well bet Pletcher/Repole entry. I believe one of the Repoles was Our Entourage who is with Jacobson now.
