I think Stallion of The Year was decided.....

The Indomitable DrugS · #1 10-27-2007, 07:26 PM

Smart Strike and Distorted Humor were both having amazing years...but things went in opposite directions for them today.

Smart Strike with his big three of Curlin, English Channel, and Fabulous Strike got a pair of wins in the two most important BC races on the card...while his speed figure specialist sprinter was unfortuantely sidelined.

Distorted Humor, on the other hand, had several touted horses running today. In fact, he had an amazing five runners who went off at single digit odds today.....

* In the Juvenile Fillies - Izarra (second favorite in the betting) finished 10th beaten a city block.

* In the Juvenile - Z Humor (6/1 fourth choice in the betting) was beaten 19 lengths.

* In the Sprint - Commentator (9/1 shot) was a distant 7th.

* In the Distaff - Hystericalady (9/1 in the betting) was 2nd beaten only a neck - however, her losing was stunning in my warped mind.

* In the Classic - Any Given Saturday (6th beaten 28 lengths at 7/2 odds)

Oh forget it......the purpose of this whole post was just to try and make an excuse for Hystericalady's loss.

The old subtle Distorted Humor's must just hate the Monmouth Park sloppy track tactic.

Ummmmm

I'd have liked to have seen her get the nod as well. Of course, had she won, she'd have been taken down for bumping GP. Would've been another tough DQ for you to take. Which would you have preferred?

talk about a convoluted mess to excuse hystericalady! but i applaud your efforts.
do they name a top stallion? i know that nothing will remove smart strike from the top sire list at this point, but is there an actual award?

What does the top sire win? Organic oats?

Tough beat for me too dude. Cost me 6-7k or so, would have had $2 of the late p4 and a buck of the super... Instead I got a lousy place bet back

Even if Hystericalady had come out on top...I think she would have gotten disqualified for bumping Ginger to the rail.

I had a $4 show bet on Hystericalady in addition to some pick 3 plays. lol

I should have just made one really big show bet......

sumitas · #12 10-27-2007, 08:58 PM

same thing with Hard Spun. with those odds, on that track, a load on show would of been a good play.

Yeah she might have gotten taken down anyways... tough to say for sure. They kind of came into each other and the bigger one knocked the smaller one.

nobody gets taken down bc day unless there's blood on the track.

any other day she comes down. but in the mythical world where she beat ginger punch, the stewards left her up.
