My post really wasn't about his speed or if he was sore or if the asst starter had his arm stuck up his arse...With all the supposed problems this horse has had on focusing and running without lugging and fighting the jock, do you think shipping also could be a problem and they need to ship sooner to prepare for his race surroundings. How about a trainer change or jockey change? He just hasn't run a straightforward race that I've seen and I just don't think he should be counted out yet.

I think he's a nice colt, but he's a headcase. He seems to expend a lot of energy being 'rank' and that was probably the cause of his poor run in the Derby. I'm not so certain that shipping is the problem... he seemed to ship well from Florida to NY etc. I would love to see this guy in the Belmont.

He will be very tough in the remainder of the races this year. If Tagg took a lesson from Todd in spotting his horses, hed be a legend. Nobiz is the real deal and I suggest you throw out his Derby. He gave up after the first half mile because he knew he couldnt win.

He wants to run on the lead but for some reason BT wants him to rate.
