Chuckles,
I have some advice for you, obviously it's your choice to accept it or not.
I would refrain from any further Sin Min discussion. Just about everyone who posts on this board has a strong opinions about many aspects as it relates to handicapping, horse appearance, and sheet and pattern reading. The sheet readers burned by last years jump up fiasco's of Greely's Galaxy, Bellamy Road and Bandini(why does a horse have to bounce- what if it doesn't as Jimbo points out or only regresses 2 points? what then?) combined with the anti Keeneland group, (which I could never understand how anyone who had any kind of an betting advantage knowing it favored speed (inside speed in particular) would not use it to their betting advantage and continued to try to beat it). You are just wasting your time and finger power posting the merits of the horse. I for one am in your camp. Let the odds float up, that would be to your advantage. As you know young three year olds are all capable of huge jumps this time of year. we should focus on what other horse or horses are capable of the next big jump. Giacomo improved 4 points in last years race, as an example. Who is sitting on the next jump up race? (to fill out the tri's and supers!!)
