Denis of Cork's owner: My bad

Denis of Cork's run in the Southwest (Pace 112, Speed 94) was the trip of a lifetime. I'm not going to photoshop pictures with circles, but he sat well of a runoff leader going way, way too fast and just inherited the win when all those in front of him collapsed. He had a perfect scenario and got a whopping mid 90s Beyer.

In the Illinois Derby, he stayed in basically the same spot, but the pace was a slow for those type horses. When the jockey of Golden Spikes took back, it allowed the leader to cruise alone up front and he simply had too much left turning for home and was never going to be caught.

Now, I don't think the track was particularly biased, though speed certainly didn't hurt, but the race was biased due to the pace. Even so, how do you explain him getting beaten rather easily by Atoned?

Why does it take 150 posts on this forum before we finally get a CORRECT interpretation of the obvious?

A Dubai company -- closely tied to the Royal Family, perhaps a Royal Family company -- buys Fasig Tipton -- and this is what people are talking about, LOL.

Much ado about nothing to me. I don't see the big deal at all.

We're a ponderous lot...

In the same respect, wouldn't it follow that Equidaily.com remove the direct link to the blog from their page, as well?

I thought the subject was the owner's admission
that he had done the wrong thing? You wanted
an interpretation of the race.

My interpretation of the thread concerned
an owner sending out an email to "friends"
apologizing for his horse's performance... How
the email got spread, and what this tells us
about Kasept's press buddy's responsibility,
as well as the something about the privacy
of email's.

I think it gives us some insight into owner's
who think they are trainers, but in reality
are oil businessmen.
