Frankel called it. A month ago, he said he would win the Malibu with Latent Heat.

Yeah I remember that and hes not a guy whose real prone to using strong words like that. Hes generally pessimistic an guarded in his pre race comments and I should have bet the horse just on his words.
he only showed similiar bravado in stating he would win the Oaks with Flute, and the Florida derby with Empire Maker. Both lived up to his pre race billing.
Frankel obviously knows his horses.

I'm sick as a dog right now. I left him out of the pick 4 and had 3 out of 4.

I think i'm gonna throw up.

I remember somebody saying that Frankel guarnteed a win in this race a month ago if Latent Heat started. That was the only if in Frankel's mind.

Well done and a brave proclamtation by BF, and an even better ride by Prado.

I agree. Hes the best when their is big money and status on the line.
I have had lot of luck with him through the years.
I think he was on Song and a Prayer when I nailed him at 17/1 in the Fountain of Youth.
