Bob and John was walking like a sore horse before the race and with all the turf works he is a sore horse. Calling him a rat made me LOL. The one that is a rat is DeStoops, he looks like a world class sprinter one day and folds like a suit made in Miami another day.

I never liked Brother derek but i wouldn't calll him a fraud--as pointed out earlier he got two terrible trips in triple crown races and it wasn't his fault that he only got 4 horse fields out there in the early spring.

Obviously, I wasn't making fun of Dexter Manley...he was a prime example of how I view you in terms of competence, that is why i used that example...didn't know he was dying...

Especially since the author claims to be active in thoroughbred ownership and breeding. Horses go through form cycles, and don't remain at the same level of talent throughout a year or a career. To insult a grade one winner as fraud is just ridiculous, especially when coming off a layoff. Lemme ask you a couple of questions Joel if I might. Hope you will respond. 1) Since you obviously were of the strong opinion that this horse was a fraud, at 2-5 today, how much money did you make betting he race? certainly you must have made a bundle. 2) As a breeder of LA breds, I would think that you would appreciate a "lowly" cal bred winning grade one races and accomplishing as much as Bro derek has. Hes yet more proof that those who enter the business in a humble way can succeed. So i guess my question is, what chance do you think that there is that you will breed or race a grade one winner in your ownership/breeder career? My guess will be about 1 in 6000. Thats about the ratio of grade winners born in every crop(very rough guess). If you should ever breed or own a grade one winner, I will fly down there and shine your shoes for you. But lets just say I'm not gonna go out and buy any polish. You really should know better Joel.
