Not touching him at < 10:1

Hope my bet isn't what knocked him down to 9.9-1

My program rounds up.

Actually, I hadn't looked at the scratches at that point. Not bad at all for a 6 horse field (with Maragh forgetting that he's supposed to PUMP at the gate.)

[hockey2315]

Glad you had him. . .

SWEET...great job Hooves!

Thought that was kind of funny too, the head on is hilarious.

My new nick for hooves is Groundhog Day.

Congrats...You was due (jus kid'n ya.) Let's take this moment to give credit to his ability to get the horse to rate. I'd say like 9 out of 10 cappers must have assumed the horse wouldn't rate. So, that being the case, shouldn't we have a way to avoid this assumption when this rider is in this similar situation. A way to remind one's self. I think from here on, I will reward this ability to get a speed horse to rate by using the following descriptive phrase:

Edgar Prado ( a.k.a. "MR. BUCKIN' BUDAKAN")

[hockey2315]

I doubt it was Prado's magical touch that got the horse to rate. . . He was cutting back in distance and stepping up in class. The other speed horses were legit sprint speed horses while his on-the-lead races came going 1M+. . .

Ariel Smith == MR PREMATURE

Edgar Prade == THE GREAT COLLAPSER

Edgar just loves busting races apart with early moves these days.
It fun, unless you bet him.
