i didn't like Big Brown and had a feeling that something like this would happen.
I played all kinds of tickets with him off the board. NONE of them with D'tara on top.

if they're all off them, the field is once again level. eight belles clean came close to beating big brown. was that his edge, the bonds shots? would he have been a five time winner before today had he been clean til now? i'd imagine he wouldn't have been chasing the crown had he not gotten whatever it is rick was giving him.

are you blaming the ride too. like the guys on the other thread? he did not beat a horse. a horse thats never been beaten. what race did you guys watch? anyone that says that horse was not sore is lying . then the other people were on here saying he was secretariat. the best is when knuckle heads claim a horse can't lose. when people talk like that and say they know horse racing . i know it will. any horse can lose on any day, or they would not bother running it. a horse thats not sound will always lose eventually. people can talk all they want but this horse is good against a weak group, plus hes got issues. i was halfway to my car before he crossed the line .

I still think Kent has something to do with Big Brown not wanting to run today. The conspiricy will come out in the next few days. Yea thats why Dutrow was sweating so much.

This is common for fat people on hot days.

Why am I taking joy in this, something is wrong.

I wanted a smashing Big Brown victory today and this is a way to cover the feelings of another Triple Crown winner going down in flames.

Im not exactly sure who one would
pick, but I doubt it was the winner.

If anyone on the board had the winner,
please stand up.

I put $10 to show on a couple of them hitting two of them. Denis of Cork and Anak Nakal. Wife had a $5 Ex Box with the Zito horses. She said they were showing him to much on ESPN and he killed her favorite horse Smarty Jones with Birdstone.
