next years will be better than what they've brought thus far, right? at least, that's what they said this year.

Is this the best you can do? You said you'd show no mercy!

Are you still the same guy who was ashamed of being a lawyer?

Dave, first you let them stick their feet in their mouth further. Then you go for the throat.

Can't blame anyone for not having the winner, but I can find laughable anyone who took these Dubai bozos seriously. And I do.

True, sorry for ruining your fun.

I'm really annoyed at what happened to Papa Clem.

By the way, did anyone else find it really weird how Thorn Song was ridden in the early part of the stretch drive?

Was he asleep? Did he not want to hit the board? I don't understand these things, the nonsensical things that go through these pinheads tiny little brains.

Join The Dance, I am not saying Regal Ransom would have won today by any means, let me repeat just to be sure there is no misunderstanding Regal Ransom would not have won today, but Join The Dance was a factor today and in many ways should be given an 'assist' for the tap in scored by MTB. I guess he has earned his Acronym name also.

Sorry, I was still too livid over Gomez's ride on Visit to notice.

I actually cashed tickets on the Derby, BTW--4 $3 consos on the KO/WR/KD pick-3. Hooray!

Yeah, Visit could have helped my cause. Gomez had it in for me today I think.

He's a terrible fit for her.

I'd love to see them let her go to the lead, like she obviously wants!

I hate jockeys. That's probably more Frankelfuk's fault more than Gomez, but still.

And why did they put Frankel's dog in a dress and show it on TV? Was Willaim Wegman directing the broadcast?

eajinabi · #12 05-03-2009, 01:09 AM

Maybe Pletcher and the Dubai folk can team up for a 10 million dollar super-over-hyped inexperienced horse next year. Cant wait

You mean Bethany Frankelfuk?

Ick.

tector · #14 05-03-2009, 01:11 AM

What kind of name is Bethany for a dog?

I dunno but Bethenny is catchy. Her parents can't spell. Give her a break.

Well I'm a little late to the party but figured you'd have started a thread so here i am.

I was wrong, played both, congrats to anyone who had the winner. I sure as hell didn't.

Not making excuses but Desert Party to have surgery...

I think it's a lot easier to say who won't hit the board in a field of 20 than who will but whatever.

I was wrong... there you go.

They're both pretty nice horses though. I'm still a fan of both.

Frankel's barn is in a deep funk and has been for months. Notice that Stardom Bound's form took a nosedive after she was moved to Frankel?

Wow. That couldn't be more ridiculous.

If it was his barn that did her in, wouldn't she have improved when moved into Dutrow's care for the Ashland?

Come back with these statements when they go 0-20+ like Pletcher in the Derby..

Apparently Mine That Bird is a Muslim. I don't know how I feel about that...
