P-Dub:
I commend you on a cogent level headed objective post. Having witnessed your occasional "excitable boy" side. When I saw that you had responded here, my first thought was oh boy here we go!
Instead I find myself having the emotional response to the Materiality hawkers. I just don't understand their infatuation and moreover the desire to promote him? I suppose it is Camp Florida.
I'm curious why the horse didn't race @ two?
Hard to be certain when Upstart began to experience his illness and beating him is Materiality's primary claim to fame other than the clock which is ? authority here to whit:
Florida Derby #'s developed from an unusual condition and don't appear to have held up. Just based on Derby results.
Lastly, my opinion is if Materiality is a confirmed front runner as someone posted (when embellishing his late gain in the derby) by definition he would not have gained ground late. Consequently he is not as I believe Miff pointed out a proven need to lead type. Therefore his Derby was as ordinary as it looked. Materiality as 2nd betting choice I will believe it when I see it. Note by definitions assertions have no rational just forceful opinions.
I'll take Tale of Verve over Materiality. Which is interesting because the bounce forecasters will be beside themselves. I say Verve was and still is in peak condition (until I hear different) This Dallas Stewart angle has become the best angle in the TC.
Go Warriors!
