You are safe. Take the Points won't likely get the same perfect trip as last, which wound up with a 3rd vs weaker. Take the Points is on nothing of mine either.

Me too.

I did not use him. He's got a big shot, but I'm not impressed by Battle of Hastings. I don't think he was beating much in VA and this one couldn't crack the exacta in those races.

I agree with everything your saying, except he has a big shot. I dont get where the $ is coming from. What has he done that says he better then even Giant Oak ?

Grade 2 Stakes placed on grass.

He has a big shot because nobody stands out here.

Why wasn't Battle of Hastings in this race? He beats Take the Points twice, who wins, lending one to believe Battle of Hastings would have a good shot at the big bonus.

I may be wrong, but wasn't the 9 best ? Murtagh has him under a drive before Kent even asked the 7 for run. Why ? Why attack a 35-1 shot who is about to back up ?

I doubt you'll ever get the real answer to that question. It's an unfortunate aspect of this game.

Anyone that studies the form and comes to their own conclusions and then either jumps on or off of a horse because of someone else's opinion deserves to lose.

Good call on Dynaforce. Hope you at least backed your opinion with a win bet.

He called his shot and actually hit a race. Just giving him his props. Not agreeing with anything. I know the results of the race and would be hard pressed to put that horse on my ticket if I was punching it now.

Right is right, he catches enough grief for all of his moronic predictions and touts.

He was dead after Take The Points cornholed him. Of course there is an unlimited cash machine AND OTB in his backyard so who knows.
