johnnym: Think you guys are really underestimating this horse..
I was sold On this horse after his Breeders Cup he had no business winning that race.
Early word looks like a lot of pace shipping in for the Preakness..

Leamas57: Ship in a track variant of 10 or 12 or higher and we will have a race IMO.

bellsbendboy: \"Nothing on this site about accomplishment\".

Fair enough JB, yet if accomplishment equals class, there is often going to be, in any give race, an 800 pound gorilla that looms the \"horse\" to beat for performance figure players.

Not at all a knock, nor a revelation, perhaps an assertion.

TGJB: Two assertions, one in the premise.

dskidmore1: My question about this horse is whether it is a horse that has immense talent but will only unleash that talent if needed or is he a horse that just hit his peak and is ready for a reality check.

Chas04: I just knew this was coming. LOL Gotta love it. Just like everyone last year was wrong for playing AP on top every race as well. GL to ya Joe though...I certainly won\'t be.

And they were right the previous 37 times. You can keep backing the Derby winner every year for the rest of your life. I won\'t try to stop you, I promise.

Chas04: touche. they all go down its just being right when they do. this one looks to me tough as nails tho.

horsegoer: nyquist will fall apart soon.

Chas04: Why do you say that?

JimP: And you can say this without even knowing who he will be running against?

johnnym: What do you see that you say that?

jbelfior: Can\'t say that on here. You\'re upsetting too many people who can\'t wait to wheel the Derby winner next Saturday.

Good Luck,
Joe B

sekrah: It doesn\'t really matter who he\'d be running against. An X is an X.

TGJB: A few years ago I was at a Jockey Club party a few days before the Belmont, and in telling Alex Waldrop why they needed to spread out the Triple Crown, I said whatever happens Saturday, I\'ll Have Another won\'t be around long. He was retired the next morning.

There\'s probably an X and a layoff coming with Nyquist. The X might not come this time, but it\'s coming.

This horse ain\'t AP, and it ain\'t trained by Baffert. Go through the Archives and find the ones who ran big in all three... that were not trained by Baffert.
