What were you right about and wrong about
I guess this could be the "I told you so thread" or the "eat crow thread" or "boast" thread.
I was totally wrong about a horse being able to pass 19 other horses to win the Derby. I was also wrong about Curlin. What a comendable performance. I wonder if he comes back in the Preakness. I was wrong about Quay being the most logical horse to be in the 2nd or 3rd spot. I was wrong about Any Given Saturday being the horse to win Derby 133. I was right about Scat Daddy. Too many issues with the feet for me to like. The only ticket I cashed was a pick 3 with races 8-9-10. The only reason was because I went All-3 (deep)-10 (deep). Congrats to Street Sense and to Bejarano on a great day.

I was right about the top three horses who came in. except i was on the fence with hard spun... was going to include him in exotics.
I was wrong about not going to the OTB to bet anything. There is an air and sea show in my neighborhood today.. so I went there instead of the OTB. F22 stealth bombers are the coolest planes in the world. some of the tricks the planes at the air show are unreal. Great day.. spend the day at the beach watching our air force and navy show off its finest and then walk home and watch the derby with good friends! i dont mind that i didnt bet.

I was wrong about Scat Daddy and wrong about Curlin. Congrats to the Curlin backers... he ran a great race considering his lack of foundation.
I was RIGHT to include Street Sense and Hard Spun in my exacta box. I boxed Scat Daddy, Street Sense, Hard Spun, Zanjero and Any Given Saturday.

Was right about Street Sense, wrong about everything else.
I only included 1 Pletcher horse in my tri box, C.Q., and he at least finished the best of the Pletcher horses. I was wrong to think that Zanjero was better than IMA (although Zanjero did have a slight traffic issue). I didn't think Hard Spun was a toss, but of the "favorites" I thought he had the least chance of all of them. HE RAN HUGE TODAY.

I was wrong when I thought the rail wouldn't open again for Street Sense.
I was wrong to bet Tiago. I, too, was wrong about Curlin. I didn't think he'd be around at the end. Thanks to Brilliant in the Woodford, I broke even today. Very happy for Street Sense's connections!!! Congrats to all who backed him!

same here. I was sure HS would win because SS would not get his way this time. Great horse no excuses. The better horse won today. I am truely thankfull that HS gave it his all because SS would have had that Yumfecta with the other 18 doing nothing.

Had the top 2 in a nice 20.00 box. Wrong in throwing out Curlin, and Imawildandcrazyguy for fourth? Whodathunk? Had to go pretty far down for any of my tri picks.
Great trip for SS, Hard Spun ran a great race. Couldn't someone have slowed SS just a little for me? It seemed so easy, or is Borel just that Magical? Great ride, but he should finish the race before celebrating.

I was wrong to throw out SS and Curlin.
Also wrong in my analysis of Circular Quay. I was right about Hard Spun and what he was going to do though.. doesn't make me feel any better.
