You guys are better critical thinkers than I am....i try and spot a good horse...lol
He's good. I've known he's good ever since the Rebel. I suspected he was good on the Southwest. Really theres no value now unless ur trying to hit tris or supers.
When he won that Rebel like he did I posted here saying that one day a horse would come along to earn a local track and triple crown bonus and smash the earnings record. I was implying this horse..lol Though I understand you're betting strategy.....my problem is I get hooked some of these horses despite knowing you can't do that...lol
I thought Smith ran a good race. He forced Smarty Wide and he stayed off the rail and I'm not sure the rail the place to be. He just didn't have enough horse. I really don't think Smith cost the horse, though you could argue it cost him third.
Five horses? in ur pick 4? Lion Heart, Rock Hard Ten, Imperialism, Eddington, Borrego, whose the Fifth???? other one in the 10 buck pick 4?
I extrapolate Smarty's closing quarter to 24.75 in hand which is faster again than his penultimate fraction. This is horse is very good. His sire had that world record mile and this guy can go a little further. the only thing that will stop him in Three weeks is circumstances. He's by far the best three year old at this point.
