Coliseum closing out at 21-1 when finishing up the track in his two prior starts (both at 3/5) might easily be the funniest thing horse racing brings us in 2019. It’s unREAL to me, and something I’m not wrapping my head around. I wouldn’t take him at 210-1 let alone 21-1. HELL, I would’nt even take him at 210-1 to make the Kentucky Derby!

He had a massive buzz before his debut, then validated it. I could give him a break for the 1st flop, but not 2x.

I think the pool closed well before today's race.

He was a joke at 21:1 regardless....just clarifying.
