Title: Question for Covel Re GAR's Wednesday Breeze
Post by: richiebee on April 24, 2014, 08:48:39 AM
Jim you da man, but I can\'t help myself.

Was it not you that thought GAR needed to be taken a hold of in the morning? Or
was it one of the other Maker entrants?

The question is: Was THAT slow enough for you?

39/103.32/117.32. No comment. Wow.

Fun fact: We Miss Artie is arguably the 4th fastest (synthetic) horse in the
race.

Richie!!!

what\'s up buddy

I was asked by someone who shall remain nameless to slow my roll when it comes down to offering my opinions/analysis on the board so I am respecting those wishes!!!!!

I am reading everything and loving the dialogue

That is NOT what I said. I want you to offer opinions, just be careful of presenting stats based on our figures.

fine line you want me to walk!!!!

don\'t want anecdotal stuff but if use figs to back stuff up but don\'t go too far with figure based analysis

trust me, I ain\'t that smart to hold that line!!!!

I do have some stuff I want to share re: distance limitations, etc so I will see if I can walk that line with that stuff

I am going to try and get out to Belmont tomorrow morning to watch Wicked Strong breeze in person

It\'s not the breeze I want to see so much as him coming on and off the track.  I want to see what kind of weight he\'s carrying myself and see how hard he is blowing after the work.  I could see the breeze better on the video but cant\' get that other stuff from the video. The guys from DRF know their stuff but they are so hamstrung in what they can say.  If they say anything negative regarding the big outfits, the trainers/owners are all over them.  I don\'t blame them, it\'s just something we need to see for ourselves to have an informed opinion. It\'s why the big whales (which I am most certainly not), still have private clockers even though there is good mass market stuff available.  

anything on the breeze would be anecdotal though so not sure that\'s good to post if I make it out there......lol
