Where are the stinking pp's for the Met Mile,AL??

Can we get Gales on here to tell us about how Musket Man is going to run huge? Or is he just going to get beat by Warrior's Reward for the 3rd time and Quality Road too?

Damn,I thought Musket Man was gonna take him at the end there.What a race!

Impressive! Way to go Quality Road.

This should be interesting... Quality Road is hands-down the leader for Horse of the Year at this point. Now there's plenty of time to go, and yes, he's not a 10f horse, but lots of funky scenarios could manifest themselves between now and the end to help elevate the interest level with the whole Rachel/Zenyatta thing losing steam.

The Mosses are wasting a lot of time running Zenyatta in the Vanity if they want HOTY.
If their goal is to just relax and hold the streak record though, kudos to the Mosses. |

Didn't catch the Met
How did QR's effort stack up against the gold standard performance (GZ) for the race? Never mind … think we already know the answer… |
#14

Hard to match Ghostzapper's performance. One of my favorite races.

I'm as big of a GZ fan as anyone, but since you didn't see the race, QR was absolutely terrific today. He battled through a contentious pace, completely broke the heart of Warrior's Reward around the turn and still had more than enough to hold off the perfect-trip Musket Man in 1:33.11. Face it, your girl's actually going to have to come run in some real races if Shirreffs wants HOY over this monster. With all of that said, I don't think QR wants to run a step further than nine furlongs, so if he makes it to the BCC as the favorite, I'll be betting against him. |

How do you think Musket Man ran?

#17

I've been trying to figure out what Warrior's Reward was doing so close to the pace, and moving with 3/8's to go, when we've seen how he excels in his most recent few starts.

And I'm a huge Ghostzapper guy. For what it's worth- it should be a 121 Beyer.

The usual post-race tard-fest over at TC
So MM gets a 118 or so, phil? |

Correct... although I wouldn't be surprised if they revise the number down because it was a closer margin, even though they shouldn't.
