I'm still vomiting over that. I noted that in an earlier post. The ********* ******** ******* ****** bejarano has to give the worst ride all year he will give to a 13-1 shot that i bet. Do I think he would have won, definitely. I'm still sick over it. I had a tri he on top of Drift and all. And he on top of all and drift. The fact that he still ran at the wire is a miracle. Bej got caught in a jam on the turn, had to wait for room, and still would have won had he not been kncoked around like a pinball. I guess someone else here watches races, very enlightening to know that.

GD it! I was licking my chops at that race, he was the sleeper of all sleepers, got the pace senerio he wanted, and well, I guess that's the breaks. He did try and work his way around and was still tryin'.

It never ceases to amaze me how stupid peopel are. If a big favorite has a trip like that people fall all over themselves to say that the horse would have won. If a 13-1 gets that trip and you point it out to someone they say "he wasnt gonna win anyway". Its truly amazing. As if the odds the horse went off at means anything whatsoveer when the evidence is in front of your eyes. Don't even bother trying to convince anyone he was gonna win, despite the nightnmare journey and the fact that he had run at the end, they will just tell you he wasn't gonna win anyway.

He can definitely handle stakes quality at CD; he just can't at the Grade 1 level.

Mike, I thought I read in another post where you liked Buzzards Bay to win this. You wrote something to the effect of "Buzzards Bay draws clear by 5".
And you keyed Wiggins? Did you change your mind?

You guys are both right, he could have won. I just looked at the replay. Previously I hadn't noticed his trip. Like always Bejarano had a lot saved for the stretch but had the walls close in on him.
Did anyone actually say he wouldn't have won? It looks like everyone is focused on PD or Seek Gold.

ArlJim do you see what I mean now? I have been furious and stewing all weekend long over that horrific beat and didn't bother to mention it here because I knew noone would care.
He would have won, I very much believe that. But you see? If he had been a horse who took money then people would have noticed. Instead onlt people who wagered on him and were actually paying attention noticed. yeah, an idiot friend of mine said he wouldnt have won, when I asked why, his answer was that he wasnt good enough to beat those. So I replied that Seek Gold was? Most people just do no not watch races. I mean even on this thread people have claimed that the jock eased up on Drift. Right, sure, he hit him 20 times with the stick and rode like a tasmanian devil all teh way to the wire, yeah, he eased up, ok sure.

A hanger is it? What a neat package to sum the Drift up in. I'm just glad he slowed down, for whatever reason, so those "dogs" like Ghostzapper, Roses in May, Rockhardten and War Emblem could win!!! Too bad he didn't show the same respect to Mineshaft.

Thanks for making me laugh, Mike... sometimes, you are so dramatic about things, it's like a breath of fresh air. LOL
