Not sure why, but I see Magnum winning the Goodwood. Just a weird vibe.

This from a guy who declared(these are all direct quotes):
That if Smarty Jones won the kentucky Derby he would be worth no more than 2 million dollars because of his lack of class.

That Island Crap(Island Sand) had no chance of winning the Acorn.
That medaglia "sucked" as a horse.

That Kittens Joy had no chance in the Turf Classic Invitational and that Blackdoun(remember him) would kill Kittens Joy and was a better grass horse.

That Gary Stevens was coming in from Europe to save the day and beat Smarty Jones with Rock Hard Ten in the Preakness.

That the only grade one that Offlee Wild would ever win was in Sweden.
That Roses In May would embarass himself in the Whitney and show he had no class and didn't belong.

That One Cool Cat was twice the horse that Smarty Jones was.

That My Typhoon was the greatest American turf horse ever before her 2nd start when she got trounced by Melhor Ainda.

That told the groom of Midway Road that her horse was a nice little allowance horse before he won the Grade 3 ben Ali handicap by 19 with a 118 beyer figure.

That Legal Precedent was the greatest American grass horse last year.

That St Liam could NOT win the classic last year, and that Lost in the Fog could NOT lose the sprint.

That Sweet catomine could NOT win the BC fillies juvy two years ago.

That WOnder lady Anne L was a crappy horse who would never win a graded stakes race of any kind.

There are many many more. This just scratched the surface.
On a scale of 1-10 in the Mush factor, you are a 50.

I am not doubting Lava Man. I think he wins, but maybe by a neck.

Bernardini wins easily.

Not sure of the other races yet. Let ya know tomorrow morning.

Scav I'm not kidding and he won't deny it. I have 20 more at least. The guys incredible, I've never seen a mush like him. Ask bellamy Road(Coach Stover), he will tell you some more, he thinks he has super powers, I'm not kidding.

yeah,
besides your "vibe" there are some reasons to think that.

If Lava Man does not do his thing(and I doubt he will be as tight as he was earlier), Magnum would be the logical horse to win.
I know this, he sure as hell is better than Brother Derek.
BDerek is one of the more overrated horses I have seen.
his fans are still crying about a post position draw back in May.
and then his trainer said that horses that win graded stakes races prior to the KY Derby should somehow get to choose post positions ahead of other horses.
lmao, yeah that seems fair.
as time has shown, winning 3YO graded stakes at santa anita early this spring was about as difficult as winning high level claiming races back east.

no I wont, I've calmed down now. Thought some things over, and decide to grow up for a change. Plus things at msoft are going well as I was just given a pretty damn nice raise for a short time on the job.

That doesn't mean you bets lots and lots of money this weekend.

I actually like when Seattle gets smoked because I have never once see him tout a horse more then 5/1...he will eventually learn that you can't beat these animals betting the prices that he bets.

If you bet even money, you have to be right 50 out of 100 to make money

If you bet 5/1's, you have to be right 17 out of 100 times to make money, a huge difference
