He's like a horse in Gallop Racer who is clearly on he downward slope.

This " I love Perfect Drift, he's so wonderful, how dare you criticize him " argument is pretty lame....to say the least.

I am curious....how much money will those defending him be betting on him in the Classic? Isn't that really all that really matters? If you can't defend 'em at the windows you can't defend them here.

I can defend him all I want. I think he belongs in the race. That is my opinion. Just because I normally don't bet, doesn't mean diddly doo-doo. I handicap races just like you guys do. Saving to buy my own horse which takes precedent over the betting on horseracing. Just cause I don't put money down, doesn't mean a person can't handicap a race.

I am not going to argue. Either you or I will be eating crow after the classic. But since you don't think he belongs in the race, then when he finishes in one of the top three spots, don't be acting like "I told you so".

I'll wager that you and I will NOT be eating crow after the BCC, Buffy.

I like that game Gallop Racer...All of the horses that have trained so far have sucked...The foal that I named Winning Colors was DEFINITELY not Winning Colors...All of the horses that I have bought though have been excellent and I have ridden a bunch of GI winners. I agree with you about Perfect Drift, although I think that they should take a shot with him in the BCC. However, I don't think that the horse is what he used to be. And yes, if I'm wrong, I'll eat crow

and this -he doesnt belong in the bcc is pretty lame on your part to say the least. i could give a rats ass if you criticize him, thats what a message board is for, to speak your mind and me mine. your op on him being in the bcc means jack he's earned his right until proven otherwise, like i said on big days he runs big races even if he doesnt win, and yes black ,i will be putting my money were my mouth is

I have no life so I've played it like 12 million times. I actually once bred the perfect horse.....125 on both grass and dirt.
