Huh, Albert The Great could get 10 furlongs. Don't know where you are coming from.

I'm tossing Sedgefield, Curlin, Storm in May (sorry B-Dub), Imawildandcrazyguy, Teuflesberg, Stormello, Dominican and Great Hunter so far. (Unless Steve says otherwise... I value his opinion highly.)

No need to apologize, I think they were talking about contenders that you were tossing anyway. By default, those horses had already been tossed :D

I'll toss Scat daddy ---Curlin----CQ. You have to eliminate some of the contenders and these are my three.

hi_im_god 05-03-2007 06:32 PM

cowtown cat. i have no basis for this other than i don't believe that name sounds like a derby winner.

i don't think a derby horse should have "cow" anywhere in their name. same goes for "rat", "donkey", and "zebra".

war admiral...assault...northern dancer...secretariat...cowtown cat.

nope. sorry. won't happen.

Well shiat, if we're picking the winner by names, I'm going with Zanjero, Tiago or Great Hunter... love those names.

Circular Quay.

And thats a toss for a win.

AeWingnut 05-03-2007 07:36 PM

It does have 3 syllables, though....

Cowtown Cat does not sound like a winner but does sound like a horse that hits the board at a nice price

All three syllables as well, so you're still in good graces there.

As for my throw outs, I am getting nowhere near Curlin and Circular Quay. Perhaps CQ on the bottom of tris and supers.

I think this is as good as any. I am suprised at the number of people that have thrown out Curlin though. If this board is an indication of the public in general he might be 11-1 or so.

The only horses that will get a spot on my exacta and tri tickets are Curlin, Circular Quay, Scat Daddy, Hard Spun, and Nobiz. I won't play a single other horse. Street Sense and Any Given Saturday both have no shot in my opinion. Saturday, they will pay the price for the Tampa race.

KG has never been known for his tosses. I give him credit for taking the stand to toss logical horses but after tossing Saint Liam and Invasor in back to back Classics I take the rest with a grain of salt.
