I\'m not sure we will see him again. Wouldn\'t surprise me one bit if he retires after this.

Let\'s not forget, his breeding rights and racing rights this year do not share an interest.  And if he beats older horses in the classic that potentially helps his stud fee.  If he doesn\'t it won\'t really hurt it.  He\'s a triple crown winner and losing against older horses doesn\'t take that away.  Everything to gain by running and nothing to lose provided he doesn\'t break down.  No reason he can\'t train up to the race either.

MJ,

Contested 23.08 followed by contested 23.60(partial turn)is pretty fast at that distance. Think that had much to do with AP/Frosted crawling 26.49 final.they ran the final split some 18-20 lengths slower than the previous splits. Speaks volumes to me.

Seems that some not considering the damage contested pace does vs loose lead pace.

And yet one more assertion.

We\'re all capable of making spelling and grammatical errors, so I don\'t usually correct, but if one is going to question another\'s intelligence, it is particularly bad form to do so with spelling and/or punctuation errors.

Idiot seems harsh.....

Maybe just wrong on the definition of hot pace on today\'s track?

Mike,

I am going to drop it.  48 first half was so weak, AP/Espinoza would have had options if the horse was on his \"A game\".  Frankly should have had a quicker opening half and created distance and made frosted chase so there was no contested pace in the next half mile.

AP just wasn\'t that good today.

What about how disgusting Texas red was.  Dropped way off a slow first half and did nothing but back up.

Whatever clocker u mentioned that did t like him as much was clearly \"on point\".   That clocker certainly was NOT mike welsch who was awful today.   Hated frosted, loved upstart and Texas red.   Yikes.    Bunch of his other \"hot\" workout horses didn\'t Fire either.  Oh well.   That kind of day.

I get it.  And I pay attention to pace.  I\'m not saying it didn\'t matter.  I\'m saying to my eye, it didn\'t matter enough.  The colt was empty and I think he would have been empty regardless.

I rarely post on this board...Mike/Miff and I do not agree on this string and I have shared this with him privately...He does not need me to defend him....whether it is grammatically correct or not, this is way over the line.

Grammar is important. I downgrade posts with \"your\" for \" you are\"and \"alot\"


for \"a lot\".
I wont even go into the pain of reading \"then\" instead of \"than\".

I\'m only leaving this string up because it\'s funny. Miff is a lot of things, but an idiot is not one of them.

I agree ...wasn\'t paying attention. Just back from town after a long day at track and drinks...I\'m an idiot...lol
