Default Big Brown WOW!!!!

Could Curlin do that? Even in Dubia this field was a stronger field that BB beat even though it was on grass. BB ran the stakes winners, older horses into the ground. What's your take, or excuses DTer's?

My take? Couldn't disagree with you more.

Well ok, what is your take? That's why ask on this forum, for opinions,you disagree, so tell why, or you can't think of anything right now, or you going to wait and read a write up on DRF then come back with something.

Red Rocks and Better Talk Now are BC Turf champions. What has Proudinsky done? win a couple of G2s?

It was the single most impressive score I saw in an ungraded stake on the turf at Monmouth today......no question about it.

It sets him up perfectly for............absolutely nothing.

I don't know man. I thought he handled his business quite well. Hardly a very exciting performance... but pretty good stuff.

He beat Proudinsky by a head in basically a four horse photo. What am I missing?

He hadn't run on the turf since his debut - and was difficult to settle early on.

I think if he met Proudinsky and Shakis again in a few weeks the outcome would likely see him winning much more convincingly.

I bet Proudinsky and thought he had every chance for sure.

Does the performance deserve a capital wow and four exclamation points? Of course not - that posters only job is to rack up the points and try and cement his status as the #1 pick in the '09 DT Fantasy tard draft.

I thought the performence deserved a WOW!!! however most are bias on the forum, against BB and remember he's moving up from 3yr old races to older horses. Will he win the classic? I'm not sure, however I bet he gives a good account of himself. The horse is 7/8 winners and still only 3. If he wins
Classic a lot of people will rag it because they hate Dutrow.

A four horse close finish, pretty exciting I think.

It was an exciting race. So was the third at Belmont today. Should we give the winner of that NY Bred MSW a " WOW!!! " as well?

I love the old " I said something foolish, got exposed, so I will turn it around on the other poster " routine.
