Oh my gosh
 
BIG TRUCK. What is wrong with War Pass?

Linny 03-15-2008 04:59 PM

he was last, something not right. Either that or he simply must make the front. Yikes, could we all be so wrong?

Congrats to those that had Big Truck!! Solid effort.

richard grunders voice knocked the wind out of em......i wouldent be too concerned....

I can't believe that he didn't blow these away after so impressively beating those terrors at Gulfstream.

Police, report to the nearest Tampa bridge.

If he's not hurt (hope he's not), I don't wanna hear about how he was compromised at the start. He should've been able to spot these horses 10 lengths and still win.

trifecta124 03-15-2008 05:02 PM

He din't get to the lead....That was the problem.

TitanSooner 03-15-2008 05:02 PM

you're the best

Did you guys watch the race?

The horse was unsettled to start, broke a step slow, was pinched back, then rank. Starters have to do a better job than that, I could see his head wasnt set and Im watching on Harnessracingtv.

More like he ran into a brick wall approaching the turn for home.

Danzig 03-15-2008 05:04 PM

it happens. coast guard going to be busy picking up all those bridge jumpers.

Linny 03-15-2008 05:05 PM

Over $150 in the show payoffs.

trifecta124 03-15-2008 05:05 PM

If he is as good as everyone thinks, he should have won this race for fun. That is why he was 1/9. I saw no excuses.

kentuckyrosesinmay 03-15-2008 05:06 PM

I thought the horse would win, but I never thought he was as good as everyone else did. I still thought that he was in the top 5 in the country though, but not in the top 3.

BF had 30 to win on Big Truck. Yay, and I told him he was crazy. I really thought War Pass would romp here, but get beaten later on down the road.

Still need to see if something went wrong with him though.

Big Truck deserves all the credit. This was a tremendous effort from this horse. Tagg was right...again.

Now, can everyone be quiet about how great War Pass is if he didn't get hurt. Hope he isn't hurt.

Then you dont understand the game. When a horse whos a straight front runner has trouble like WP had thats whats giong to happen. Its absolutely disgusting that they didnt reset that horses head before they spring the gate

you can't be serious.

trifecta124 03-15-2008 05:09 PM

Ok I don't understand the game.....Are you kidding. I have been listening to how this horse is the next secretariat for months now. He is a good horse and he had no excuses against a field as weak as this.

justindew 03-15-2008 05:09 PM

Toss the race.

ALostTexan 03-15-2008 05:10 PM

I think Big Truck has done enough...

Toss nothing unless there was an injury. The start wasn't ideal, but he was nowhere when the running started.

jcs11204 03-15-2008 05:12 PM
