All I got to say is Roi Maudit @ 10/1 was awful sweet

what i think JRV really meant to say was that tgm wanted to run the same distance, but in a longer amount of time.

If the overhyped Green Rat was bet like he should have been, Roi Maudit shouldn't have been over 4-1.

I've always felt the big yearling first time starters are almost always overbet.

I dont think that was all that bad for a 1st start. He ran in 10 and change. Any other horse and we would all be saying that was a great tightener for better things. I actually believe that he is not a sprinter either. Any horse that is ridden from the bell to the wire is not a sprinter. I guess you all want him to run 1:08 and be broken down by his third lifetime start. Be happy that they paid money for him and continue to support the sales well. Its a fascinating story still if he makes it or not.

Then what is a horse that has to be ridden from the bell to the wire called? You know, aside from "loser"?

It would be nice if he could run 1:08 and change, but I won't hold my breath. By the way, he was broken down before his first start.

Yeah, we need more people getting fleeced at the sales on horses that can barely get to the races so that new owners are attracted to the sport.

Its a fascinating story still if he makes it or not.

Just like the gripping Mr. Sekiguchi saga...

Your belief system fascinates me...
