IM ALL IN!!!
Even with that shitty draw for post
only filly inrace draws the post farthest from the rail. She will need be be nearly perfect from there.
Just as in the Derby, the post position is usually not a factor.
all, over her, over all
all,over all.over her
there was not even a minus show pool for the Oaks with allowance horses against her...I was actually shocked by that but whatever they did not bridge jump.....she did only pay 2.10 to show but it was not a bridge jumping minus show pool...
She will pay 2.40 to show or so Saturday if she hits the board.
Point taken. But the Oaks was seen widely across the nation and her exposure as undefeated will be all over the news now.
Anyone got a link to past performances?
enjoy the race!!!
ps she is not undefeated...
:+clueless Derby--something like no horse has ever won from the 18 or 19 and only one from the 20..id say size matters..
will be a great Saturday afternoon of racing that is for sure..love the horse racing buzz with Rachel in the race..I just think she is an easy bet against.
Post positions of the last 11 Derby winners: 8, 20, 7, 8, 10, 13, 5, 5, 16, 15, 16. The Derby and Preakness are unlike most route races in that there is a long run to the turn and plenty of time for the jocks to work out a good trip.
I stand corrected! But she has not lost with Borel as jock. 5 for 5. The Oaks win against what should have been somewhat her equal as female was stunning. She has Speed and according to Borel..'you get on a horse like this once in a lifetime...'
It's good for the sport win or lose.
different owners....different barn....different meds...different food...different training patterndifferent owners...the first owners would never run a filly in the Derby..they believe its a show case race once a year to help a Colt, get a leg up as a potential great stud career...granted a gelding actually won this year..but the old owners would never have run in the Derby...
different owners....different barn....different meds...different food...different training pattern
DIFFERENT ROUTINE
:doh1
Dumb ass greedy owners...they sold the horse at the best possible time...all about the mighty dollar...get something for the horse while they could...be careful here
