I'm coming upstate this weekend.....save me a bong hit.

No one dislikes you. Seriously...Just post how you feel like posting and don't worry about it.

It wasn't the picks. Everyone is welcome to post their picks, but to then tell us you make money is just lying.

My problem with this post is that you don't seem to realize quite how difficult winning a G1 race can be. Look at a horse like Sun King. He is a pretty good horse. In his life he has won two G2s, two G3s, and been on the board in seven G1s. But he has never won a G1. I think that if the Green Monkey ends up being as good as Sun King, we would all be pretty shocked at this point. But even if for some strange reason that does happen, it STILL doesn't mean that he is going to win a G1.
That, in my opinion, is one of the main reasons that your post will prove to be incorrect.

Does he ever break his maiden is a better question? I'd say it's less than 50/50.

Yeah I think people could have a legitimate discussion about whether they think he will ever break his maiden, although I am not sure exactly why anyone would want to have any sort of lengthy discussion about this colt.
Talking about whether he will ever win a G1 is like talking about whether or not I will ever defeat Tiger Woods in a golf tournament. Actually it is almost exactly like that, because I don't even play golf.....and this colt doesn't compete in races.

I predict that when you wake up tomorrow.....you will be an astronaut. That is my opinion, but it is an educated opinion.
I make a lot of money predicting who will be astronauts.

pletcher has so many horses, he enter all his in a G1 and then TGM will win. pletcher got the G1 for Trippi when More Than Ready was slightly pulled up before the finish line in ny in the vosburgh.
