I can understand tossing Tiago and Casino Drive, but why Go Between.
Casino Drive is an easy toss, Tiago more difficult but you have to draw the line. Go Between seems pretty logical to me.

Any shot Curlin goes off at 5/2 in the Classic with the pro ride question mark? If so I think given this field that would be a price that is interesting.

No chance. However, you might be able to get something like 6/5 on him if you like him that much. Once all that Japanese $$ on Casino Drive gets into the pools ala Deep Impact in the Arc, I'm guessing most people should be satisfied with the prices they get on the animal they like...unless it's Casino Drive.

Curlin is 7/5 ml
Raven's Pass is 6/1 second choice.
Go Between 8/1
Duke, Henry, Casino all at 10/1
Colonel John 20/1
Fairbanks 10/1
Champs and Tiago 15/1
Student Council 20/1
Smooth Air 50/1

Yeah, that is ridiculous, I couldnt' believe that, gotta be Battaglia

What a horrible race.

NTamm1215 10-21-2008 05:07 PM

This is vindication for Brad Thomas, who received a great deal of criticism last year when he made the lines as the races were drawn. He did an outstanding job compared to this year.

Finally got to see Thomas without those HUGE shades and, as it turns out, I remember him from the '80's at BEL/AQU. Would see him with his 'partner' taking notes in front of some monitor during the running of the races, always engaged in discussion about the trips. They both would have a couple of bags with stacks of paper (their NOTES, I suppose).

Vindication for BT, IMO, would be ACTUALLY WINNING AT THE RACES, i.e. SHOWING A CONSISTENT PROFIT, rather than basically wasting his time doing color/morning lines for MTH/MED. What's next for him: posting on DT or PA?

One person doing a horrible job doesn't vindicate another person that did a horrible job. It just means that two people have done horrible jobs.
