I think he's the best horse in america, easily the fastest....

i think at 1 1/8 he would beat curlin

I know I will regret responding to this.

he's a very fast horse, and a very good horse....with very real physical issues. He's 7 years old and has only made what 18 starts?

as for the Curlin thing....WTF? no comment.

I just hung up on Nick, luckily I saw the original post while we were talking and I was able to convince him not to ship Commentator over for the Dubai World Cup.

I just hope he discouraged him from trying to sound like the Italian Don King when the press comes around looking for quotes.

As for the World Cup, he'd be loose as can be in there - and might pull a Moon Ballad.

It would be a very high risk/reward decision to run there.

He's just having fun.

Compared to some of the drivel you post on message boards he's Shakespeare.

I don't know about that, pg. Visionaire won the Gotham and KYRIM had a wp wager on him. I'd say Visionaire is the best horse in the country right now.

First of all, it's bad enough you are posting at all, but repeating your posts should be a criminal offense. Secondly, why are you quoting a response I made to another poster as though I am speaking to you ( try to answer only once )?

The problem with Commentator has never been his talent.....the problem ( duh ) is keeping him sound. He is a 7YO, who has made 17 starts in what is now his 5th year of racing, so just hold your horses before you start planning too ambitious a campaign for him. First and foremost, hope he stays sound, and then perhaps, just perhaps, he will get a chance to run up to his true ability....wherever he runs.

jcs11204 · #14 03-08-2008, 08:18 PM

you guys are corny, the speed numbers back me up on this one,

why is this funny or a joke ?
he is a special horse
