Have the horses become more sound as a result?

A lot of times when the track is very fast - it is wrongly viewed to be speed favoring by jocks and horseman - and the races tend to be a little more demandingly run.

I guess let's just run everything on poly track where the distance horses go 50 and change under holds and still fade through the stretch.

I'd hate to see a track like the one Gulfstream had on Sunshine Millions day.

Is your avatar a bet with John White that POTN finishes exactly 8th in the Derby?

I enjoy Jon White a lot for the most part.

If POTN wins the Derby - I will have an avatar of myself here for the rest of the year.

If POTN finishes ahead of IWR - I will have an avatar of myself till Preakness day.

Not quite.

And if POTN wins the triple crown ... naked photos.

Wouldn't that accomplishment be upsetting enough?

Let's not make this one of those Kurt Paseka/El Senor situations.
