Well done. I couldn't get past the Wayne Lukas factor but congrats on the nice score.

Hey, Doug - - nice....

I have to admit, though, I made up my mind on Oxbow after listening to a TVG interview with Donna Barton Brothers saying that the race sets up well for the colt...

That takes nothing away from your great call though...

I used Oxbow underneath in the 2nd and 3rd slots of my trifecta. This analysis influenced me too in using him though.

But I did not win since I used Orb on top.

I didn't think we were still playing in the 80's.

My hat is off to Lukas for winning another triple crown race after 14 years.

He had 3 in the 80s.

I even bet one of the three. But, I am not sure I get the point.

Again, Lukas deserves lots of credit for what he has done with this horse. But, if anyone has been playing his horses for the last decade and a half based on his 13 Triple Crown wins, they would be broke by now.

So what exactly is "the Lukas factor"? He has run a lot of horses that obviously weren't worth betting, but I never dismissed them just because of Lukas.

Not trying to butt in, but i dismiss Lukas horses because he runs a lot of horses that obviously aren't worth betting.
