I agree with number one, number two is absolutely laughable, and the only way Zanjero can win a G1 is if he finds one with a four horse field like the mother goose or something. . .

First of all, I made that prediction before the Derby. Second, what if Street Sense retires before winning again, and Curlin wins maybe once more and does not return as a 4-year-old? Then maybe Nobiz can win some of the big fall races, and become a major player next year winning multiple Grade 1s in the handicap division. Who knows?

That wouldn't make him the best horse of the crop. That would make him a mediocre horse who needed everyone else to retire to finally get some significant wins.

True, unless he beats them before they retire, which I think can happen if Street Sense and Curlin race again.

I'm admitting that I will probably be wrong about my Nobiz prediction. But all hope is not lost.

The Albert the Great comes out again. What a bad moving horse he is, I get uncomfortable just watching him.

Bid, I agree...he looks like the 330 pound lineman who picks up a fumble and stumbles down the field...SLOWLY

it was weird, i actually only saw the result on paper. i'd imagine it would be hard to dream about a place you've never seen!

now if i had only seen the winners name....



but i'm sure the bloody mary had nothing to do with it!

Default I have a few predictions

1) Their will be races on the Fourth of July

2) A lot of us will be going to them and we all hope that all the dumb money brought in by the holiday will put us in the black for the year.

3) Lines for said Track's Concessions will be ridiculously long.

4) At Least One person will lose money b/c they run into an in competent Mutuel Teller.

Oh wait that all happened Last night for Me at Lone Star Park.
