That was some run by Bayern by the way, I know Joey will appreciate we were spot on with how those idiots let him get away in the Haskell, the second he had pressure put on him he folded like a tent. Too bad that Tonalist played the sacrificial lamb there.

That was a brutal beat with VE Day getting up with Castellano who we were discussing earlier with the ride in the fourth race - somehow, it is appropriate that he puts the dagger into my tickets defeating Wicked Strong, three wide on the turn as opposed to sitting the pocket, for the major win.

I am very disappointed with the ride in the final eighth from Rajiv Maragh, however I am not sure whether he thought there was anything left in the tank.

After the 47 and change half, I called out that a longshot was going to come bumping along ... and it played out that way.

I am not sure why Castellano has to play the games, he is a brilliant rider and demonstrated it again there. I am the idiot for seeing how the race was going to play but putting myself on the longshot closer with Leparoux riding instead of the one with Castellano on him who understood that his only shot was if pressure was put on Bayern, which was likely to happen, and sit back and make one big run instead of middle moving.

Lanerie, Albarado, Leparoux, Saez, Bridgmohan, Hernandez, these guys are all suckers who have gotten exposed when in a jock room with guys that can really think and ride.

I'm not even mad. Tonalist and WS sacrificed a win. Don't think Bayern was winning with an uncontested lead today.

Shame if ya had WS

Wicked Strong didn't sacrifice. He absolutely tripped out. One of the most inexcusable losses I have ever seen. Maybe he was not doing well. He was very washy and the vet report did say he was recently treated for dehydration. I dont know? But there has to be an excuse to get gunned down by VE Day. VE Day is OK and improving, but Wicked Strong is supposed to be a top two 2yr old. He should not have lost that race with that trip. Good luck guys. Im playing a little Del Mar tomorrow, mostly action pick 3's and Im taking a break until Belmont.

Another goddamn laughably slow pace on turf. So sick and tired of it.
