Thanks!

He is not that good, and thats being really nice because of the deal we have. I could have said horrible, terrible or something much worse about him.

No idea but I know that is why this race had 19 pre enters.People finally figured out if they run and make money now that they dont have to kill there horses or crossing their fingers on poly to make the KY Derby

That is why horses are coming in from FL,Cali,Canada,NY.

Also a reason why Rogue Romance is running next week,he showed he liked CD. So why not keep him there and let him run in the KY Jockey Club? I get the idea,its easier to get graded earnings now then wait till Feb. THey run him now and in Feb he could run like crap in Arkansas and still be in.

That's all right, I could have called you Rock Tard Hen, but I didn't.

In the past it's probably been the timing of the race and the Bull Ring that has kept a lot of quality horses away. It's not like people just figured out that $1,000,000 is a lot of money (or the 750K it was the past year, I believe). Personally, I like this event and is the one day a year I actually play Delta.
But winning on a gimmicky track like that is one reason why it's hard to equate the Jackpot winner as being a possible future star on the Derby trail.

I wish you would have. The ANTI-mush could be useful. I have a small future bet on him at 200-1, so I'm keeping my eye on him, and think he has a nice chance to improve next year.

RHT and I have a deal. He can't say anything overly good, or anything bad, about any IC offspring. With that in mind, he's given you the reverse mush.

It's a unraced filly named Arienza that sold for 800K at Kee Sale to Robert and Lowana Lowe. Didn't check for works.

Figured a change from all the Z and HOY crap is needed.
Anyone have any maiden winners that they think will move up?
I did a ton of research to come up with this list, and the Derby winner is likely on it.
Give The Factor a bit more time before you finalize any list.

Despite the hype, you might want to see him actually start in a race, don't you think?

Wow you're right!

That was pretty stupid of me to say he was the Derby winner.

Should have said something like... oh I don't know maybe let's see if he's any good... you know, give him more time, before you finalize any list since you're (RHT) saying the Derby winner is on the list in the original post.

Why on earth I proclaimed him the Derby winner... no, the triple crown winner (!!!) is beyond me.

The excitement of the moment I suppose...
