Change your profile picture to a 20ish blonde waitress.

I do have a nice set of sausage tits.

Is he sending Tiger Woods a friend request?

You really don't think he's special? You sure treat him like he is a special person.

Deservedly so.

Yep....he hired me a few weeks ago.
I thought stating that everything he says isn't "automatically wrong" just because he is the one saying it was a nice, conservative way to get started on the job.

I guess not. Too much too soon.

Perhaps I should have started even more conservatively and said something like..."hey he's bound to be at least partially right one of these days, right?" Either way, I plan to execute this assignment so wonderfully that DrugS is facebooking him for handicapping tips by the middle of June.

I don't necessarily disagree, and this horse doesn't strike me as a likely Derby contender. And you are right that calling him a "complete" wild card was probably a bit of an overstatement by my client.
But I still think the point about a horse who appears as if he might possibly be an improving 3yo on dirt making his last derby prep over synthetic being something of an unknown quantity if he runs in the Derby is a reasonable enough point.

"Might" be improving? As was pointed out (by the same poster who seems to be completely perplexed by the horse's form), the horse went from a 78 Beyer in his final 2yo start to a 91 in his 3yo debut.

I suppose an open length victory, in a major prep race, on a natural dirt surface, with a triple digit Beyer will ram the point home; but what would that do to the horse's price on Derby Day?

Seriously....? Shouldn't the Illinois Derby either lose its graded status, or be moved to Arlington during the summer or...something?

I can't believe anyone pointing to the SA Derby or AK derby didn't think twice about shipping here for this spot. Even Anthony's Cross (didn't Harty win it last year with the legendary American Lion)?

Will this the year the Blue Grass mercifully loses its GI status?

They'll never do it...After yesterday, maybe the Florida Derby should as well.

I can't remember what turf writer suggested in a column/article last year that only dirt graded earnings should count for Derby entrance, but I'm all for it. Then again, a gang of money was plowed into Stately Victor last year, which isn't entirely a bad thing.

Which race, the Illinois Derby, Santa Anita Derby or Wood, has most recently seen it's winner come back to win the Ky Derby?

It's 5 weeks out from the Derby. The last two years, the consensus favorite didn't make the gate.

And horses can come from anywhere and get real good real fast. If it weren't for Rachel A, Dunkirk and Summer Bird, Mine That Bird might be a Triple Crown winner.

What about Shackelford?

I like all the preps. Line them up and let them run.

Its only 300k, so winning the race doesn't guarantee you a spot in the Derby.

It will be a bad race

I know I may be reaching here, but after one dismal prep after another, is it even remotely possible the Arkansas Derby will be the best prep? :o

Ya but the Wood has the derby winner in it :)

Not that I think he has a chance (at this point), but The Factor's triple-digit Beyers are somewhat refreshing when looking through the 30 or so top contenders.
