If this holds, t

But it doesn't hold.  When I thought up the angle, then North64 tried it again w/me, it didn't work.  A few horses who it would have eliminated ran 2nd or 3rd.  But I think it did work on the "winner."

True. When we looked at it I Don’t recall the winner being sacrificed. I know good magic was a tie years ago so technically that did not qualify. I gave up because the delayed year from covid and the cheating by baffert and probably others. Just seemed all the angles people worked on so hard were  thrown out because of the times. Also so few preps as a 3 year old makes it tough. It was fun while it lasted.

Maybe we can "tighten it up" a little bit next year, i have some ideas.

My newest toss for the win, Smile Happy.  I went back over his races, esp. last, even a horse who is tired who has "hutzpa" is going to rev up a little when another horse starts to pass them, if they are alpha in any way, and .....well, he just doesn't do that.  I feel that if he is called upon for a duel, he's going to back down.  Would be interesting to see if Kerry Thomas agrees with me when his report comes out.  

Also reading that Charge It is quite difficult to manage, um, he appears to be somewhat "randy".  I don't think he's a good gate horse.  Apparently the kind of horse that wears everyone out in the barn.  (I remember Steve Asmussen having one like this, I forgot who though, really hard to handle horse. )

"RANDY" I like it. What's a Randy.

Like a Karen of horses.

And Dogs only wants One key horse to finish Uno for Roso followed by the "Lookin at Lee" type colt and the Toss of Tosses 3rd.

I would keep White Abarrio on the list as his 4 wins are @ GP. His last derby prep was yesterday @ GP....No breezes @ CD??

I'll let WA beat me on Sat. Great looking horse though!!
