Re: The "P" Word (380 Views)

It's true that quite a few contenders (at least contenders as per TG) looked like they had similar running styles. The horses I figured to benefit from this were Afleet Alex and Wilko, so the "P" word was not entirely overlooked by this TG handicapper.

I admit I didn't think the stalking flight (guys like HFly (winner of the Kentucky Derby Mile despite having the wizard-like judge of "P" Jerry Bailey in the irons) and HLimit) would TOTALLY crap out the way they did (except for Closing Argument (?!? - he really ran an INCREDIBLE race!). It's hard to imagine that you could get the whole "P" thing right AND predict the big forward move Giacomo would need to win.

I also don't recall anything CH said as being particulary specific or useful here, and I certainly don't mind reading his posts...
