...is getting a lot of support in the Doubles. As is Red Rocks.

he should be near the front so ya gotta consider this horse along w HS and LR and SS...the track so far is playing against SS in that the front runners are benefitting from the track and i don't see cheap speed in this race. an edge to AGS, LR and HS.

You're just gonna keep repeating it until someone believes it aren't ya?

Everyone will love Borel even more after the brilliant ride he is about to give Street Sense.

Heaven help us if HS or LR wins. I do enjoy them but being as they're more likely to be showing speed I don't wanna have to listen to this one telling us how well the speed held up. I heart Street Sense and I got a soft spot for Tiago but I wouldn't blubber if Lawyer Ron got it. It feels like every win he gets proves everybody who wrote him off post-Derby wrong.

Seriously? The winner was nearly dead last for at least half the race. I'd say you're looking in the mirror on that first sentence. Typical, you've been self-obsessed all day.

you are not my shrink. go see yours. HS held his speed throughout. there's more to the game than win bets, buster.

Sure he held his speed....and LOST....to a come from behinder... here, I brought you tissues.

Hard Spun does not get his picture taken very often...but ya gotta give him tremendous credit for how he has performed in so many of the top races

Payson Dave · #11 10-27-2007, 06:09 PM

Hard Spun hanging on for second does not really help support the bias argument

especially when Lawyer Ron doesn't even make it to the turn

Danzig · #13 10-27-2007, 06:11 PM

any given looked uncomfortable, and lawyer ron looked like he was climbing the first part of the race. both spun their wheels.

Larry Jones didn't Cowboy Up. Why didn't he bring a lasso to Mamouth?

LR looked uncomfortable on the track warming up be4 the race for the brief few moments i saw him with the pony, and HS ran about as well as he could@the distance. no shame in his race, its obvious what his strengths are normally id say why the hell dont they just stick to em but no shame in getting second in a race worth that much is there?

thought i saw him acting up a bit. at any rate, once the running started, it looked like ron was doing his best mountain climber impression. i knew he was thru before the first turn.
hard spun ran his typical race, which wasn't quite good enough for the win. but no doubt curlin ran on the same hay oats and water the ass man always gives his horses.

Hard Spun ran well but was helped by Lawyer Ron being finished on the backside. The jailhouse will be rockin tonight!

sumitas · #20 10-27-2007, 07:01 PM

when that lead surprisingly opened up on the back side you knew he'd be in the money. but Curlin's move was powerful and i'd say he dominated the track. my hat is off to him on a great finale. he'll be missed along with Hard Spun, Street Sense, Lawyer Ron and George Washington. Any others from the classic I missed that are retiring ?
