![]() Da'Tara didn't get an easy lead? Delosvientos is much better at the irrelevant (maybe not with the BC Marathon now) distance of 12 furlongs.

horrible.... ok/decent good... with potential to be great zenyatta heatseeker curlin thats really all i can think of right now, and heatseeker is kind of a stretch, because putting him in means you almost have to use tiago, who beat him on normal dirt. |

![]() Vitruvious was the most disappointing to me.
I knew j jerkens would have a big day, I just decided to back up the truck on the wrong one. 2-3 isnt bad though. oh yeah, and anything trained by Pletcher stunk. |

![]() On a day like Saturday it is easy to be disappointed in many ways. You put more than the average time in for the big day, and probably uncover a few more things than you would on a normal day.
There were quite a few disappointments for me... DOC running on for second was one. There were rumors floating around the stable area that he wasn't right (fever). Hearing it from more than one person made me toss him. The Delaware horse running in the NY Bred race, Revealer, at 20-1 ran like a 20-1 should, but I had thought I had discovered oil when he never took money. Obviously I did not. Barclay's horse in the Stephens, Groomedforvictory, was also disappointing as his last race was a nice watch, exploding late like that to run down the leader after having a bad journey. I didn't think Barclay would throw him to the wolves like that if the horse wasn't up to it. It's not his style. In the end it didn't matter as J Be K freaked and wasn't being beaten by anyone. I guess that makes Harlem Rocker legit again after his Polyflop. But for me it the MOST disappointing was Stalingrad. He really seemed like an improving horse that was taking his game up a notch. His prior effort was a real nice one in my eyes. I guess it makes sense that a Glitterman doesn't want 10f. I had a lot of things going on with him and watching him sit the trip he did the whole way around, and have nothing left for the drive was very disappointing. Just another day at Belmont. |
