HP:
Honestly, I liked him early on because I thought he had run a number two back as fast as RoG did in beating Banks Hill.
I loved him after the draw because I estimated that Rock would lose somewhere between 3.5 to 4.5 paths (worth 2 to 2 1/2 pts at 8F) starting from PP10 on an 8F course. The results indicate to me that
a) my ground loss estimate was pretty good
b) Rock is better than I thought and 'Driver was very lucky to win.
Alydar: I wasn't gloating. My point was that I thought I had more insight into Domedriver's ability than most and we didn't make him anymore than a "B" horse in the PK6 syndicate we played (and that was based on everyone's blind faith in me that the number I had given him was right). I'll bet after his win 80-90% of the pool was out. There's just NO WAY you could have possibly singled this horse. Unless of course you waited until 3:30 to place your bet.
