That movie won the Razzie for worst director, but SOMEHOW did not win the award for worst picture. It was nominated....but didn't win. I don't know how.

Premium Tap is Grade 1 horse in the way Lava Man is. When faced with real Grade 1 competition their true colors are shown. That they cant win a race with true grade 1 competition, cause they dont have the class nor the talent to win

Lava Man couldnt hold Tap's wang hair. Finishing a game second to the eventual H.O.Y. means nothing now-a-days? This guy is so far from reality, I'm surprised we even respond. He puts the Ma-rig-a-ma-roo on every horse he picks. (as if I dont)

lots of good horses finish 2nd to a HOY, but they arent of true grade 1 caliber

[Seattleallstar]

what about horses like Early Pioneer, and that horse that won the Stephen Foster last year. Your telling me they are true grade 1 horses as well and can compete with the best?

[Seattleallstar]

who did he run against in the Woodward? Clark?.............were there other Grade 1 performers in the race???

Flower Alley doesnt count, we damn well know what happened to him

[miraja2]

Oh for the love of pointgiven1985, now he is saying that a horse that has won SIX G1s (Lava Man) is not a G1 caliber horse. I am not a big fan of Lava Man, and he certainly has some severe limitations as a racehorse, but once a horse wins six G1s, saying that he isn't G1 caliber is just foolish.
Give up trying to convince him otherwise. He apparently just doesn't get it.

And I'm still waiting for an answer as to why winning the grade 1 Woodward, running 3rd in the BC Classic to a HOY and 3 year old champ, and running second to that same HOY again does not make him a grade 1 caliber horse. I have a feeling I'll be waiting a long time for this answer.

For s hits and giggles, would it be possible for you to give me a few examples of grade 1 caliber horses running right now. And please, try and make it as amusing as your top 10 list, I need a good laugh.

The last time he did a top horses in training list I believe horses like Ravel were on it. There were some other really funny ones as well.

so far id be a total idiot to say yes given his progress as a 3 yr old, but he did win the hopeful and thats a grade 1. With that said he would have to show alot more to even be considered a true grade 1 class horse

well, of course not silly, since prem tap isn't a gr 1 horse!

it is quite pointless.

Once upon a time, I thought he was...and someone tried to warn me...oh..I think that was you.
