Our Sacred Honor.....Gulfstream allowance winners from Pletcher's barn have been ineffectual in the past and while I don't know what kind of number he ran Saturday he hardly beat a stellar field. His prior win was hardly inspiring. I guess one could say he has upside, and he may for perhaps a race or two, but I am a " seller ", so to speak.

The other one I really don't know anything about other than he got drowned in the Keeneland Breeder's Futurity and beat garbage in the Delta Jackpot.

To be honest it was more a lot of the other names on the list that IK am far from enamored with.

"........seemingly rail-biased track."

Somebody forgot to brainwash this guy.You guys do a good job of brainwashing on here,but away from this board,your efforts are not getting it done.Some still actually think the rail was golden that day,and you must complete your mission(and kill this idea once and for all.)

No TIME SQUARED..........................although he did include Ravel, Mandurah, Les Grande Trois and First Defence on his "Ones to Watch"

I don't like any of the horses on the Something to Prove list and Liquidity, Notional, Stormello and Scat Daddy I see being off the list come April.

Isn't Zito the only guy who had horses left in training after the '05 Derby He did a brilliant job with a horse with as little talent as Andromeda's Hero and got Sun King firing in the right direction.

Whatever happened to the impressive maiden winner Cobalt Blue? I havent looked at the times and trips of all of these. Alot of them I have not even seen race but Cobalts race was the visually caught my eye.

I loved the debut of Came to Pass on Saturday and he's bred to run forever.

Interesting part of that story was that neither Barbaro or Bernardini had done anything this time last year

Would you mind elaborating on what he has done wrong and what the right thing for him to do is?
