I hear you...very true.

I just think too many of us try to make cases for horses that really do not belong.

I hate to do this, but I'll use GREATER GOOD as an example. I do not want to bash other people's opinions about this horse. He's a nice horse who may end up making me eat my words. (he would not be the first or the last). But I think this one is a real reach by those looking for the Derby sleeper.

Rather than try to make a case for the hopeless (horses that don't belong ), let's use the hopeless (the uninformed who do not use numbers, do not watch and re-watch preps, etc) to make cases for those that can contend according to handicapping methods that we use all year long. What better example than FUNNY CIDE at 12-1 or THUNDER GULCH at 24-1.


Good Luck,
