Just cant see that field beating Game On Dude, especially the way the track has played this year.

How can you have faith in Dullahan at that price considering the races he's run this year?

I thought his last race was okay. I suspect he'll run big here.

Dubai races don't mean anything. Last race was okay.

I haven't seen a lot of races live in my 5 or so years being a fan of this game but that performance was by far the most impressive I've seen in person by Game On Dude.

That was really awesome.
He has such an efficient stride.

Does anyone think it was crazy for Delegation's jockey to just let Game on Dude go like that? You're not going to beat a need the lead type horse, especially a multiple G1 champion, letting him go in 24 seconds for the first quarter. All of them were crazy to not try harder. There were a couple in there that could have run the first quarter in faster than 24 seconds.

A horrendous strategy by Casse. Very important to come out of the 10 hole in a 10f race and expend your energy on the 13 horse, who happens to be 75-1.

I agree, dumb strategy by Casse. He should have allowed BlueSR battle it out with GOD early and have Delegation sit right behind them in third.
I am surprised no trainer entered a rabbit to deal with GOD up front. Doug O Neil comes to mind. |

Lol Game on Dude was supposed to beat those tomato cans. As long as dude stays away from the best horses in the country and beats up on Grade 2 horses at best he will win and look good doing so. Can you imagine him in a race with Cross Traffic, Ft Larned??? It will just be a matter of when he fades if he puts in a run at all.

I think Seattle makes a reasonable case. He was supposed to beat those horses. He did it impressively and is now two races away from answering the question he poses. He will be out for redemption. The question may turn out to be "Can you imagine Cross Traffic and Fort Larned in a race with Game On Dude??"
That's where we're headed right? I can think of three horses who are locked in to HOY with a win in the BCC and GOD is one of them. Meanwhile one of the three simply needs to avoid the race and hope the other two lose. I'll be torn between my and my . There will be some great value among all others and I can only envision myself using GOD on top in a protective way. |
