I'm not at all in any way demeaning DC's performance by stating this.
I just happen to get sick to my stomach when they make a track so fast as they did on Saturday.
It makes it so very hard to gauge performances.
I wanted to post a " this is why Nobiz got all the media hype" thread in regards to his Champagne that you and I both gushed over and said he was the better horse.
But my enthusiam about him, though still very high, was tempered by the fact that I dunno what he proved either. He loped behind moderate fractions and hit them with a burst of speed that on a track like that is gonna win you the race.
I'd have liked it a lot better had the track been honest and he had done the same thing.
I still think hes the goods, but have to wait until spring to confirm it in my mind now.
