I do believe there were different circumstances that would have led to an AP victory, but I don't believe he is some super horse, and you continue to post that all over this place. The speed figures on beyer and timeform are in line w/ almost every race he has run. How can you say it wasn't AP or he had a bad day. That's simply not true, at all. But you continue to spew drivel. You cant be objective about the horse. At least admit it, and maybe try to move on.
Get over the fact that I among many are AP fans and aren't afraid to admit he is a super horse and far above "very good" as you so ineptly put it. And I'll say it again he wasn't the real AP in the Travers or Keen Ice and the rest would have had another long range shot of his buttox as so many have before . . . oh and get over this . . . he did have a bad day and if that's spewing drivel . . . so be it but it's very good drivel.

Guido, come on bud.

Now I know why Eugene Ponticorvo REALLY did himself in.

He was subjected too long to your horse racing blather.

Now that's inane drivel.chicken dinner . . . you likey? But you and your locker room buddies like RHT can play slap happy with each other all you want. As they say to the losers on "The Shark Tank", I'm out! Back to racing.

This is the very definition of a bad opinion.

I always liked him better on WOR with Dave Johnson and Charlsie than on CBS.

If this were true, then horses would never 'come again' in the stretch to win races. I suggest going to YOUTUBE and watching a replay of the 2009 Vinery Madison stakes. See if Informed Decision's rider followed your advice.

Even though AP is the better horse, they aren't machines. Victor knew his horse was in trouble, he put Frosted away when he was supposed to, unfortunately he just wasn't good enough on this day to hold off Keen Ice.
5 lengths, really? I'm talking about not asking a horse for its best run entering the stretch and you somehow interpret this is as taking him to the rear of the pack. He put Frosted away too early. And, he really didn't need to put Frosted away.
