Default Best call of the day was Donna Barton

Saying that Super Saver looked "drawn" that he looked like he had "lost some weight" since the derby. The only F'n problem was that they only had about 3 horses to load when she made that comment and it was after I had used Super Saver in about 95% of my trifecta combinations.

Wouldn't this info have been great to know and we get it with 30 seconds before the bell.

How could this not have been noticed until right before the race? That's all I read was how great Super Saver was doing, came out of the derby fantastic, his breeze was exactly what we were looking for ...etc.

This quote from Haskin the day before the race..."Based on what we’ve seen so far this week, you have to include the Kentucky Derby Presented by Yum! Brands (gr. I) winner, Super Saver, in all bets. He has held his flesh extremely well since the Derby and had a good strong gallop this morning."

Not pointing fingers at Haskin, but a lot of people must have missed the boat on this one. We are talking about the Kentucky Derby winner, not some 10K claimer and nobody noticed that the horse had lost significant weight since the derby but Donna Barton.
