Gus,

Sublime effort. Congrats on the tremendous opinions, scores and yet another great Oaks/Derby diagnosis! Hope listeners took advantage again.

Thanks Steve, I consider myself lucky to being able to share my opinion on this site.

Thanks for all you do.

Gus

super effort Bogey on an obviously difficult race to cap. Of the 24 handicappers listed in the drf only 1 (Steve Klein) had the exacta in the their top 4 selections and only 6 of 24 even mentioned Animal Kingdom in their top 4. So congrats on a herculean effort!!

Thanks Mr.G, it's funny you mentioned that about the DRF handicappers because Steve Klien is the one I respect the most.

Wow Gus that is truly the ultimate score. An absolute Grand Slam, congrats again and enjoy spending your bounty!

Great job Gus just 1 question, what was the thought process that caused you to include Mucho Macho man in your picks in order to hit the Trifecta and Superfecta?

I don't want to speak for Gus, but maybe it was something like ' if I'm right about Nehro and Animal Kingdom, and spread a little underneath, maybe I can nail the super for 24 large'

It isn't much of a redboard considering you gave out the top two finishers as your top two selections before the race.
Congrats on doing a great job on a tough race.

Tom, you are exactly right. I keyed off Nehro and Animal Kingdom and spread with 4 others underneath. In my comment about Mucho Macho Man I stated to consider him underneath.

I appreciate the kudos from everyone.
