a freak on the basis of what?
A couple of visually impressive but soft trip wins over moderate competition? |

Why is it that on message boards, the horse that was best only wins about 10% of the time? The winner was best.

I was knocked out of the pick 4 leg 1, only bet Keeneland after, NO ACTION AT ALL.... I say Aspire was the best, maybe someone else will offer an opinion. |

In a lot of cases .. it's the narrow, life and death winner, who's light years best ... like RA in the Preakness or Woodward.
And in other cases - it's horses getting beat 20 and 35 like MP and Flashing who were way better than the result because of the way the race unfolded. In other cases - horses like SB wears down QR at 10fs but isn't really better overall because QR is a miler. I don't think knowing how to analyze a race has anything to do with who people bet. |

I think I was right about Giralomo..... Hes a stud, he broke slow and still did that, Kensei is accomplished and this was REALLY STRONG IMO. He just blew him away. I know the track is playing fast but Kensei had the better trip and had nothing for Giralomo and the time was strong as well. |
