The Pletcher is the only one that's still on the track at this point.

i have to agree. smith had to check him at least twice, and definitily took the long way around, i'd say he was the best horse in the race

I'd have to 100% disagree with anyone making this statement. Rachel Alexandra was head over heals the best horse in this race. All you have to do is look where the other horses that were running with her in the beginning of the race finished. She ran real strong fractions and still one. Big Drama is the only one who could stay around and he still finished about 6 lengths behind her... Fresian Fire was up on the pace, he is supposed to be a real nice horse... and he backed WAY up in the stretch. Mine That Bird, while having to check and go wide the final turn (Rember Rachel also had to go wide the first turn).. just loped along for the first 6 furlongs... I dont think his trip was as difficult as Rachels and I also think there should be no question that he was only the 2nd best horse in that race. Even if he had a perfectly clean run at rachel on the final turn he's not going to beat her IMO. He may have been a half lenght closer but thats all. Rachel was not letting him by. And if you are going to say, "what if" MTB had no problems around the final turn, you also have to say "what if" Rachel had been able to relax and set more reasonable fractions? Like Danzig said, its a mute point anyway.

spell check still wouldn't have picked it up. A mute thing makes no noise. You could substitute the word “silent” for "mute" in a sentence without changing the meaning of the rest of the words, except insofar as mute generally describes something that should be able to create sound but is not or cannot. That subtle difference explains why we have two distinct words for the condition of not making noise. Moot, on the other hand, can mean anything from debatable or unsettled to pointless or meaningless. Most commonly, you see it used in the phrase “moot point”. When someone responds that a question is a “moot point”, it indicates to the maker of the point in question that someone thinks that their statement adds nothing to the conversation, or, more commonly and less correctly, that the issue cannot be resolved. http://www.one-step-forward.net/2008...rsus-mute.html |

I actually prefer mute points over moot points.
I wish most people made mute points. |

As soon as that horse got loose on the lead I knew I was going to lose my bet. And they aren't even homonyms.
