As 4YOs, Close Hatches was the better horse, as Songbird was not particularly good as a 4YO and Close Hatches was, until she wasn't...which shouldn't be ignored.

Suggesting Songbird wasn't a good 2YO because Baffert didn't have a good one is idiotic. She was a brilliant 2YO. Once again, tell me the last one that was better. Her 3YO year was sensational. She just didn't improve from two to three, but she was still much better than her ( admittedly ) weak competition. Don't forget, Forever Unbridled was a 4YO when they met in the BC. As a 3YO, Forever Unbridled couldn't have warmed up Songbird.

You are going WAY overboard....frankly more than her delusional fans that dramatically overrated her. She was a terrific horse. It's not her fault some of her fans evaluated her unreasonably.

Songbird was a fun horse to watch and amazing at 2 years old. Overall 9 grade 1 wins. On a side note watching your nets up in Boston tonight Andy.

Agree. It's Lakers or nothing. Davis won't commit long term anywhere else, Boston can't give up Kyrie for a rental. I wish the Lakers could get him and somehow keep Kuzma and Ball. It would make things really interesting.

Nice. Tough game but they're competing. They need to work through the injuries over the next six weeks.

They keep grinding. Every time Celtics look like they pull away nets come right back. Wish my Knicks had this heart
