i think i said a while back that i strongly dislike this horse, and took a lot of crap for it..... connections dont know what to do, and simply put hes just not that good

You don't know what you're talking about. Those 'connections' that 'don't know what to do' won a Breeders Cup Classic and had a Horse of the Year. David Carroll had a plan he wanted to stick with and would be doing things differently but is being countermanded by the owners' long time adviser. Like most subtleties, it's obviously lost on you that the horse is an undefeated graded stakes winner; has run faster on figs than all but Pyro and War Pass; and is better than virtually every other three year old in the country.

he's not that good? now, that i disagree with. if anything costs this horse, it's the sudden indecisions over the last few weeks that will have cost him, and the one race in 11 weeks is a big concern. i don't think the HORSE has done anything wrong tho.
i liked this horse more than most in this crop, and with war passes recent non effort, i think the field is wide open. but i'm lukewarm towards denis now due to the changes we've seen recently with his schedule. the name sucks, but lil e tee won, so that doesn't mean much. i don't like cool coal mans moniker either, but still picked him to win the FOY.
