Those don't look so hot.

While it is true that Discreet Cat is the only horse on that list that even resembles an elite race horse ---- I don't understand why he is the favorite in the futures right now....7/2 is not a good price on a horse who's probably less than that to make the race....but hey, he is God after all. If he can walk on water....turn water into wine....bring people back from the dead....and all those sorts of things, surely he can dominate this sad group of horses.

Interview with Discreet Cat showed up in the Times Union this morning:

Reporter: Good morning Mr. Cat, it has been said that you are very brilliant, do you agree?

D. Cat: I'm alright I guess, but you know who has the biggest balls in town? Street Sense. That dude carried the Juvie Jinx on his back to victory in the Kentucky Derby. I mean have you seen some of the holes he has bullied his way through? I wish I had those balls, heck...I need 4 months off if the wind blows by too quickly.

Reporter: Speaking of time off, how is your throat recovering?

D. Cat: Godolphin didn't want to ruin my good boy image, but truth is, I was being stalked by this dude, DrugS, and couldn't take the pressure any longer and took up chain smoking. I mean, the guy thinks I can walk on water and stuff...I can't even run on dirt on a regular basis!

Reporter: So when can we expect you to race again?

D. Cat: I refuse to run again until the State of New York recognizes my Civil Union with Flashy Bull.

Reporter: Such a shame. It was good speaking with you Mr. Cat.

D. Cat: Likewise.
