Lucy,
When are you going to start selling your figures? Does Jimbo really need your help?
Jimbo,
I don't know what you want Jerry to do. He had an opinion and he expressed it. It's a horse racing bulletin board, not a sensitivity workshop.
I think JB made it clear that he didn't love the race or consider it a strong betting proposition. If Jerry said, "I love this horse in the Travers and you should bet the house" and he blew it, that would be one thing. He didn't say anything of the kind. Quite the opposite. So I don't know why it's a big deal to point out that his choices didn't fare well. I'm sure he didn't christen the race an "A+" bet.
Jerry liked Lion Heart and I think he's made it clear that he doesn't think an extra furlong is a big deal. I think the extra furlong IS a big deal and I would've bet accordingly. If you had Birdstone and the exacta that should be adequete compensation. Light up a stogie. Living well is the best revenge.
