contender or pretender???? thoughts???

He's one I can see hitting the board...

He's slow, but he's consistent.

The Bid · #3 03-01-2008, 08:53 AM

He will be a hell of an overnight stake horse.

mp3 · #4 03-01-2008, 09:25 AM

overnight stake??? that does not sound like Derby material!!! so you are saying he has no shot to win it????

AeWingnut · #5 03-01-2008, 09:31 AM

I like him

still plenty of time to figure it out

The IEAH shill is back.

What's the next target date for Big Brown? Come on, make another one up, keep your record intact.

Understand its much easier to say
pretender. The vast majority of these
will not make it to the race, so probability
makes the negative answer look smart.

He looked good closing in the FOY,
but the first two really did all the running.
Still early. I am not particularly fond of
his style.

The Bid · #8 03-01-2008, 10:11 AM

you made me take one out of the FOY field and make a run it would be Elysium Fields.

I dont think a good chance for the Derby, no

True.
They are both easy outs.

OK here is another stand.
E. Fields will not win the Derby.
Want to bet?

This is a stand also?

No one.
I took a stand.

Took my vitamin last night.
How does castration feel?
Still hurts obviously.

King Glorious · #13 03-01-2008, 10:31 AM

I think that after you get past the top two, it's extremely wide open. In that light, I wouldn't throw ANY 3yo out as a contender....to hit the board that is. But I don't think he can win it.

The Bid · #14 03-01-2008, 10:38 AM

Elysium Fields made a big jump in the FOY. If he continues to progress forward there is no reason to think he wouldnt have as good of a shot as anything being mentioned with Derby. He really looked to be light on seasoning for the FOY, I thought he ran extremely well and would undoubtedly say hes the best horse to move forward from that race.

Not sure about the castration part, but as you know my offer is still out there and very feesible. Feel free to accept whenever you like.

Yes it took a lot out of me.

Go reread the thread.
No one knows who you
are (paranoia intact).

But its clear what you are.

It was very impressive I thought.

You dont want it.
1. Lakers win, I dont know your sacred identity.
2. They never meet, I dont know your sacred identity.
3. Spurs win. Uhhh you are out 1000 or 200 bucks and... I try to kill you?

Jackson Browne all the way....

Oh good Lord...
Good excuse.

You got yourself in over your
head. I understand that.

Good luck at the windows.

No, why is it ridiculous? This crop is filled with nothing but slow pokes and I see no reason why a consistent horse (albeit slow) can't hit the board.
