NO NO Scav It would not matter if Affirmed beat Alydar again someone on this forum would say "Affirmed beat a bad field" I have never seen a forum where it does not matter who wins the race someone always says he beat a bad field I just think its very comical

I agree that it seems to come out, but I don't usually say things like that, and I overestimated how strong the field was. BB might be the only horse to go to the Derby from this race.....

If they send Smooth Jazz, it would be a disservice to the horse, because he ran out of gas going 9f, what will happen at 10f?

Electrify is faster.

It jars the funny bone. To me he looked like Lost In the Fog going long. He surely scampered out of that gate incredibly fast and ran the field into submission just like LITF used to, but this time longer.
