you are right but remember you said Euro, singular one horse out of 8 showed anything, I see a couple doing okay sat. however for all the hype this year on the Euros I think it's going to be poor showing, just an opinion, i'm not a pro like all the bloggers on the site.

Perhaps you should watch the races from today. No way does Fabulous Strike hang on up front. And that's too bad because I think he's by far the best horse in the race.

I disagree that they've underperformed. Who was really supposed to do well other than Halfway to Heaven, who was untested at ten furlongs?

If Goldikova, Soldier of Fortune, Raven's Pass and Henrythenavigator all run up the track tomorrow, I'll agree that the Euros underperformed.

It's gonna be like xtra heat in 2001, except for FS will hold on for the win....and FS won't be a girl...and a lot lower odds.

After seeing the way the races were run today, what's fair value of FS? 6-1? He's been a long-time fave of mine since he dusted Talent Search in an ungraded stake at Mnr, but I just don't see how he hangs on tomorrow.

I hope not. I don't want the buttertoothed bastards on here bragging tomorrow. That goes for our own who harbor those filthy redcoats.

Default CASINO "Usain Bolt" DRIVE
The day of reckoning has arrived. Like an eclipse in time, Casino Drive is ready and set to lay his rightful claim as to being the world's undisputable King of thoroughbreds. Casino is the collective son of all the great past and present kings and queens of the purest bred equine majesty (virtually absent of inbreeding), and after a patient ascension to the throne, today, Casino will claim his crown as the reigning King of thoroughbred race horses.

Masses of fans around the world will cheer their long anticipated coronation of the new King. Many more will wonder how they screwed around and missed the Prince's grand ball. All will speak of his spectacle for decades to come.

One scene is certain, all the world will stand in awe today when Casino lights his royal rockets. Casino Drive is the Usain Bolt of race horses. In layman's terms, Casino has the fastest stride alive, just like Usain, and after today's Breeders' Cup Classic, there will be no more royal disputes.

Prepare to pay homage to the new King, Casino Drive.

Dr. SwineSmeller
