Agreed.

i just think it's strange that his effort today is the complete opposite of every race he's ever run before. yeah, not as suspect company as a few weeks back, but this horse did a 180 compared to his usual effort. had he lost by just a bit, that would tell you that maybe the field had caught up to him maturity-wise. but this was certainly an anomaly for him. and unless your name was seattle slew, smarty jones or majestic prince, you've suffered a loss at some point leading up to the first saturday in may.

we'll see how he comes back. if he comes back.

one good effort doesn't make a champ, and one bad one doesn't mean you're not.

I thought WP was doomed when Todd T "all" called WP a free square it seemed like 10's of times.

He might have the title of Ultra Mush, seriously, any free square he talks about always runs poorly....

i don't know.

i think the connections wandering around with roses before the race might give him a run for the money.

Cornelio said ths:

Of War Pass, Velasquez said, "He just didn’t go today like he always has. At the half-mile, he wanted to go to the lead but he just couldn’t go. Today he just didn’t try like he has in the past. I don’t know. He just stayed back and couldn’t take the lead. He did not run today; he’s a nice horse, but I don't think he liked the track."

War PAss's owner La Penta said this:

War Pass owner Robert LaPenta said his colt had a fever earlier this week.

"He wasn't himself today," LaPenta said. "We wanted to come out of the gate and take the lead around the first turn. ... War Pass had some fever this week and we thought he'd be OK. But obviously it wasn't his day."

With a couple million bucks in the people's money tied to this horse which went off at 1/20 ($.05-1) wouldn't it have been nice if the betting public had been made aware?

You never see an NFL player with a hangnail not reported.
