Is there 'enough pace due to presence of DRIFT KING and SIPHON THE KITTY'?

I dont think anyone will be near Drift King especially if he rips off another 23 second 1/4.

I wasn't agreeing with you fool. That was an idiotic statement that you made based on the fact the horse has never run on the turf and has never had the lead at the quarter faster than 22.3. So explain to me why Siphon the Kitty can't run with this horse.

A little testy today kgar? Way to jump right into the name calling.

Redefined could probably have the lead if he wanted it, but may end up trapped inside Drift King and StK. For a horse that seems to like making a wide move, this may not be the best trip.

Snowstalker and Hatta Fort for me so far....

I normally like to either see or hear a race if I have money on it, so wether I put money on a horse is my business. And its funny you make fun of my pool but you would be very surprized which owners, trainers and handicappers are involved in it.
And to know little old idiot me is the leader after 7 days.

Speaking of how much people know....remember when you posted this:
"I had no idea who Barbaro was until he won the derby."

To me that says that you don't follow the sport very closely....which is fine. But, if you want to have the reputation as this great handicapper, it might be advisable to post all of these winning plays you are claiming BEFORE the race, or demonstrate some other area of knowledge about the sport, rather than just redboarding everything.
Now if you want to call certain people out on this board, fine. I don't have a problem with that. But you should probably go ahead and call them out rather than just making vague claims against large groups of people that you only identify with terms like "everybody." I don't have anything against you personally man, but this stuff you've been posting the last couple of days seems to be - in my opinion - a bit over the top.

Im not taking anyone's "side" here. I am just verifying that i have seen this guy post a couple of winners.

As far as knowing or not knowing who barbaro was before the derby, what does that have to do with his ability to handicap? Do you have to follow racing at the highest levels to be able to handicap a monday card at delaware park?

There are guys I see at the track regularly that dont have a clue that Curlin was pointing toward the arc but knew everything that was going on at the particular track that they were betting...and they win often.

"Of course ive heard of Barbaro before the race but not in the context of "super Horse" as everyone decided to put him in after the derby"

I believe this is what I said after that exagerated post I made before. So when you decide to call me out about something please make sure we dont pick and choose posts, give us the whole story.
And I call nobody out until people like hoss and pants and others decide to jump on people first. They are like wolves. Think about how many more people we could have on here adding their opinions if it wasnt for a certain few people marking their "territory" and get a little freightened when new people decide to add an opinion on here. I dont have the time to look but I bet there are lots and lots of people that have been here and have under 50 posts and have never posted again because of the BS they get right off the bat. Keep the same people on here posting the same stale comments all you guys want. And its a wonder why some people are on here getting private messages from certain posters about coming over to different blog sights to get away from this sight. I dont understand why Steve just dont make this site private and just allow the same morons to post here without allowing anyone new to come in. Maybe that will stop the fighting.

Good luck to you and all in this race. It will be interesting to watch the outcome. I am hoping that everyone that replied here will have a fearless selection.

I will post mine and duck from the thrown tomatoes if it finishes last.

Cheers.

For what it's worth, I used Redefined as my NYRA Showdown pick. That doesn't mean I'd actually bet him in the race... I just think he's got the best chance to hit the board of the runners today.

You too, I think both are the right plays on the card. We need Storming Off to run like the reason he's dropping in for the claim off a good effort... 90% of the entries gone in 7 days. Amazing. I have two of my three left, the only dinger was Street Magician getting beat a nose in the last jump for third.
