I may not look it but I'm a very strong finisher.

Too late...the damage has been done. To be considered lower than CJ is something I will never live down.

It is a position rarely occupied by anyone.

What is with this "independent handicapper" stuff? Surely you can do better than that. How about "PaceFigures.com consultant"?

Great Hunter is one that has the 3 syllable name required by 90% of all Derby Winners

Interesting. I know people that handicap the Derby based upon names... "stupid" or "crazy" or "non-traditional" names, they say, do not win the Derby. Based on this logic, Nobiz Like Shobiz is in trouble.

We've had three non-three syllable winners since 1990. There goes Hard Spun. Dangit!

Damn, that's crazy!

Maybe we're due for one that isn't 3 syllable. LOL
