I'm not so sure
 
After watching that $5,000 claimer, Aloozo win at Monmouth puts him right there.

Cool Coal Man was a " Hidden Horse " on my show after his debut.

justindew 02-24-2008 04:41 PM

I retimed the race three times, and got 1:49 4/5.

Hoist Her Flag 02-24-2008 04:44 PM

the fractions weren't wrong
 
They are they are, slow... Cool Coal man I can respect, I just don't respect that Court Vision, who I don't even like is 18 lenghts behind a 49 and 1/5? He wasn't even that slow last year, Monba did he run? The pacesetter absolutely collapsed off that slow pace? The race doesn't make sense.

1:49.8?

Solid.

I wonder if the entire race is two seconds off. Would make sense. The first four seperated themselves from the field early which makes it even more impossible the fractions were right.

The other Big A

Wouldn't know Facebook at all except for seeing the stories on the news.....Not interested in that yenta nonsense....Andy, I respect and admire your knowledge and insights on the sport....You have to just trust me on this horse

Also, I had the opening quarter in 24:1. It looks to me like the clock started when the gates opened.

Facebook told me Court Vision and Z Humor, and although I did use both in my exacta and tri's, unlike when I bet Alazoo who was the facebook choice I took a stand on Cool Coal Man.

I'm sure Andy will stop handicapping now.

Good stuff Justin.

I'm sure Randy Moss will time it properly.

I liked the horse going into the race and said so in this thread.
However, as has been pointed out earlier, winning a 9f race at that track when you have some speed and are breaking from the 1-hole is not exactly an outstanding accomplishment.
He was an overlay today, but I think that the opposite could certainly be true in his next start.

Coach Pants 02-24-2008 05:03 PM

Pletcher's horsies seem to be just under the magical amount. I love it.
