David,

While you addressed your post to Jerry I'm going to repond then step aside.

This is Robes analysis of Scrimshaw before the Preakness:

"Scrimshaw: Recovering very slowly toward that big 2yo effort and could see another 1-2 point move forward off his last which would make him borderling competitive for exotics"

Scrimshaw made another small move on Sheets in the Preakness--if people don't believe me they can look on the left side of their Board--they have both the Derby and Preakness there.

In the guys own words he says, "he is recovering to that 2YO old top". Says nothing about ignore the number because it was in a sprint.

So now on Belmont Day you are to ignore the number because it was in a sprint. Doesn't work that way with me, sorry. WHERE IS THE CONSISTENCY??

But I don't want to talk about Scrimshaw, I want to talk about TMW.

He had TMW in a pairup in the KY Derby of his Ill Derby number. Wally Dollase is a pretty smart trainer and after the Derby he was livid that the track was too hard, said his horse had hurt his back, needed chiropractic help and couldn't wait to leave KY.

Pat Day is a Hall of Fame rider who said when called on the horse on the backstretch of the Derby he got no response--I repeat, HE GOT NO RESPONSE.

Now both of these guys are a lot closer to the horse than some guy in the Ragozin office in NY. Do you think they feel like he exerted the same effort on Derby Day as Ill Derby Day?

But hey Robes says he did, so what the heck do those two guys know?

So I repeat how does he come up with the horse if he was only faster than one horse in the race--Supervisor??
