Chris--
Always respect your posts. However, my opinion on CLOSING ARGUMENT is that his pedigree is chock full of sprinters. Besides SUCCESSFUL APPEAL, CA has speed influences on all sides which includes MR. GREELEY, GROOVY, and CORNISH PRINCE. Not the type of animal I would want to back going a mile and a quarter with 20 in the gate.
WE can look at the Thoros, Beyers, patterns, trainers, etc. All great tools and the best places to start. However, if the horse is not bred to go a mile and a quarter, all of the above factors become moot.
PS:This is not to say that CA will not have a say in the outcome of one of this weekend's races.
Good Luck,
Joe B.
