By Derby Time? You could even consider being burned out forever. Those horses minds are probably fried after that ridiculousness.

Unfortunately nice horses like that get ruined because of egos.

I expected it from Albergatti's connections. As far as Runflatout, this rush to get him on the Derby trail is astounding. That organization, West Point, is just beyond me. When you see them in the paddock at Saratoga you almost expect David Koresh to come out and speak to them about their horse in the upcoming race.

I was being sarcastic. . . If you're trying to nurse along a horse who shouldn't be rushed into the Derby, maybe it'd be best to try to avoid a speed duel with your fellow sprint maiden winner.

LOL...Street Hero's son (UAE 2000 Guineas Winner Splash Point ) sure has better action than pop's had. Both are big strides though.

Somehow you're mixing up Premier Pegasus' brother,Street Hero, with Street Cry, whose highest earner shall remain undisclosed.

His (Street Cry's) highest earner this year is Spray point. I am sorry for the mistake. An 8.9 earthquake (combined with an M K Cho horse winning a Derby prep in a romp,) is a bit surreal.

The horse's name is Splash Point. Street Hero is not going to have foals racing until 2012.

Looks like The Factor and Sway Away's stock just soared too, as they beat Premeire Pegasus last out

You bring up an interesting point. My first thought was this shouldnt be possible or allowed so I went on NJBets and entered a 2.00 Future wager on Sweet Ducky at 50=1. I then was able to cancel it 5 minutes later. I guess you can't cancel after Sunday... I'm going to check that out too.

you can cancel up until the pools close, and I'm sure there are people making ridiculous high dollar bets with the intent of canceling later. All is fair in love and war and advance wagering.
