Title: Cheaters Cheat.. Life is Good... Can we move on?
Post by: bluechip21 on May 12, 2021, 06:55:54 PM
Can we move on to a new topic here? I think we all agree on the BB topic.

Have not looked at the product yet, but I am wiling to bet Risk Taking in this spot.

Blue can’t imagine why you think the Board has already made up its mind about Beta Bob? Really?

I am going to take a swig of Midnight Bourbon. Asmussen gets lucky and is able to secure I. Ortiz, replacing Mike Smith who did not give colt much to do at Louisville.

Perhaps most importantly MB ran competitively against Derby winner Mandaloun and Derby runner up Hot Rod Charlie in the Fair Grounds preps.

We so rarely get one of the Prime Suspects clearly in our sights, that moving on is not an option.  This is Big Game Season and the rules feed our expectations. We all want a more level playing field. Everyone knows why its tilted. It\'s just been like pulling teeth to find accountability.

One can handicap through the cheating, but it would be wonderful if the cheating could be further suppressed. Figures and Patterns could return to even more powerful indicators of what is likely to occur. Odds may change and we may have to adapt, but it would be wonderful to do so.

Everyone has their own perspective, but what appears to be taking place is Kentucky has put into place a better laboratory than Bobby and others have anticipated. Obviously Kentucky deems the Drug dangerous for the equine.

Reading between the lines is a favorite  pastime. We all do it in handicapping. Much can be garnered from \"What is said\" but sometimes more can be ascertained from \"What is not said\". In regard to the former, who thought that as it pertains to the latter that Bobby\'s \"Groom Pissing in the Barn\" statement, showed an abhorent disregard for his own horses?. Bobby\'s defense of himself took precedence...And, this isn\'t the first time he\'s used this excuse.  As HP stated \"Where there is Fire, There is Fire.\"
