Problem with Devil May Care is that she made the last move in a multi-move race. Now, people can bet her expecting that she, once again, gets a perfect trip. Of course, the problem with that is Blind Luck is a much better closer, having demonstrated that she can close against the grain, and would eat DMC up if the race were to collapse (or otherwise).

I think Blind Luck is going to win the Oaks rather easily.

i think thats wrong too, Blind Luck is very good but not unbeatable. I like the vibe though that spells great odds on some other talented performers. I have never been much of a Quiet Temper fan but she scares me some as a longshot contender.

I'm not so sure Bickersons ( who won't even be in the race - IC was kidding ) has less of a chance than the horse who finished second in the Ashland.

I love it when people take me seriously to half seriously when I say something absurd like that.

As for the Ashland, my thoughts are that the runnerup will get way overbet coming out of that awful race, but I'm a little surprised that the only positive talk she's getting here is coming from PG1985.

Hmm, nevermind.
