the horse tripped and fell over another horse in a spill in the stretch, the stretch is called the lane sometimes

Do you think Doug Shanyfelt is one of those cheatin' "super trainers" Beyer talks about? 41%... horses always seem to improve greatly under him.

Not trying to be snarky or sour grapes or anything. Just wondering if anyone knew his story. And I'm not trying to sell Samurai Prince short, either. He's winning at all distances and was the fav.

he has some good connections that he buys the horses outright that trainers like Frankel sell to get rid of. Dale Baird who passed last year would buy them in California and bring them in all the time, horses coming from the major tracks should improve here unless just been hurt and never regained any form or class.

Don't feel bad Dean I feel your pain, but there's always next week. Although after the night I had, I kind of wished I went to bed too. A couple of bad decisions coupled with Rosario not being able to close the deal for me in the fifth equaled a crappy night for me. If he can get that horse in at the worst I break even for the night.

Wanna hear about pain? The other day when Byk hit the $1200 P4, I decided to use his picks (something I feel dirty about anyway), except I thought I'd shave a few entries here and there to bring it down to the $30 range. I shaved the 20/1 that hit in the fourth leg.

Now that's pain. Ah, well... they weren't my picks anyway. What kind of fraud would I have been; walking around telling everybody I hit it. Because I would have.
