Adagio claims?

[blackthroatedwind]

It's not even remotely off-topic. It's actually an interesting concept/discussion about a racing situation. I'm sorry it got deflected into some personal battle ( I guess if I disagree with someone I'm just being an ******* ).

I shouldn't have joked in response to the Seinfeld reference...and I tend to forget that attempts at humor are often misinterpreted.

You can disagree with me a million times man, matter fact, you probably already do. As always, it is how you do it/say it.

The fact that you disagree with me is shocking anyways because last I remember, you followed Gulfstream and one specific guy (Rivelli) has claimed three horses off of Dutrow in what is almost the same situation, and others have claimed at that 25k level. More importantly and specific to these now two horses, at ARLINGTON, they will be able to compete at the 16k starter and 25-35k open claimers level, which are races they write and fill all the time, and Rivelli, Catalano, Miller, Canani and Stidham claim horses for those specific levels constantly

That horse kinda looks like a big vet bill waiting to happen.

Yeah the horse most likely has alot of holes and there aren't too many trainers sharper than Dutrow. I'm sure BTW has seen this a few times before...Dutrow jamming one down their throats during his years following the NY circuit.

What I argued with was you saying everyone and their brother, essentially, was going to go in for the horse.

If you had started out by saying one guy, and a guy who has claimed from Dutrow before, would take him, this entire conversation wouldn't have taken place.

Andy, I said three guys, all specific to Arlington. All three aggressive claiming guys.

Listen, I am done and over with this. This got way out of hand and way too serious for how it should have been.

People, including myself, could have actually learned something, instead they saw two grown men bicker

The bickering is because you took it off topic ( and I contributed with my ill-advised joke for sure ) by acting as though disagreeing is personal and suggesting a lot of unnecessary things.

Yes, Scav, you said three Arlington guys. What you don't seem to get is what that implies....and I think you are dead wrong about this. It implies that only these midwest trainers have access to Starter Handicaps and/or understand the value of claiming a horse that is eligible for them.

[blackthroatedwind]

It also suggests Rick Dutrow, who's pretty sharp, isn't particularly aware of this.

I'm sure you've seen this move by Dutrow more than a few times over the years in New York...and it's probably safe to say most of the people who filled out a claim slip didn't really get any type of bargain.

It does not imply that at all, but whatever. We all read things differently.

My first post was specific to Arlington, as it says. I didn't mention any other trainers or their thoughts, at all.
