If cashing the Preakness makes me a loser I'm happy to accept the tag.
I was wrong about Afleet Alex.I was skeptical on him at classic distances.If you check previous posts-I tried to punch holes in him for his 1 of 5 route record not his excellent 5 of 5 sprint resume.I had a strong opinion on Scrappy T and posted repeatedly on him.I felt the three year olds were average at best as of May 15th.I was wrong only about Afleet Alex,but still managed to use him on top of Scrappy in the Preakness.
As of today this is still a below average crop of three year olds if you take AA and Lost in The Fog out of the mix.
Losers in my opinon would be the bettors who made Malibu Moonshine,Hals Image,Galloping Grocer,and Going Wild all shorter than 30-1.
