I find it hilarious how people come on here and make statements about a race, observations, thoughts - what have you - and then after the race are quoted and ridiculed. I don't get the negativity.

Anyway, Denis of Cork was absolutely pace compromised today. I though Golden Spikes was applying enough pressure down the backstretch to wilt the pacemaker, but it didn't matter, they just continued in the carousel-like ways.

Unfortunately, Denis of Cork will unlikely have enough earnings to get in the Derby, depending on how the final handful of preps shake-out. While he's dependent on speed up-top, the whole crop is poor, so any horse who has at least won a race should be in the Derby.
