true but he did beat St Liam in his first whitney who was no slouch! No matter how good or not so good Commentator is... it was an absolute steal to be able to have him at 9/2 (or did he go off at 4-1). Serling must have been nuttin himself with that price.

True 9/2 in retrospect was a nice price, problem is looking at the race before the gates opened who would have thought he would have been alone on the lead without being pushed...I'm sure many of us were left scratching our heads when the apparent speed battle didn't materialize. Bad for the Student Council backers...

true.. I wasnt going to bet the race.. until I saw 9/2. I just figured he was the class of the race.. why not take a stab with a price you will rarely get on the big guy.

Scott and Phil said it best on Saturday. If he was able set fractions slower than 46 for the half.. he would cruise.. Faster than 46 he would collapse.

It was worth a shot at the and on that day I dont think he would have lost even if Tastyville ran with him early.

I just wish I would have more guts to throw down real money on a horse.
