I'd pay for it. Just thought it be cool to have a chat for horse betters. We can handicap together and pick races we like to handicap, etc etc. Been doing this with friends but they're noobs. Be cool to do with you guys. Any interest?

I think Beach View is going to outrun his odds. I'll be surprised if he doesn't hit the board.

Dr. Dorr in the Classic.

Taking a flier on #1 Piedi Bianchi in the Alabama Stakes at Saratoga in the 9th. This Pletcher horse is getting no respect, but she's got the class to compete.

Holy shit, big price winning the 5th.

Not sure about Dr. Dorr. Seems to be on the downslope.

It wasn't worth taking Accelerate at 1-9. It's generally not bad to go with a Baffert horse in Califorina as a next choice by default. I had Dr. Dorr at least third.

The Del Mar Oaks was a good race with Fatale Bere. How often do you see that happen, where a jockey catches the field sleeping? Still, the horse had to be good to do that. Nice to see my guy, Kent get a stakes win, too.

Finally found the spot for Petrov

Everybody loves to win at the Spa. Hit him with the heavy cola and send him down the road.

I was playing ultimate Texas Holdem at Bally’s earlier this morning. One guy at the table mentions his good buddy is a horse trainer on the East Coast. Said it may be worth to throw a little bit on the #4 horse, Mission Command, in Race 7. 15/1 odds. I threw $10 on him for the hell of it.

Finished third to last. And a horse named Blue Belt — with 50/1 odds wins late :lol:

JORR was talking before about horse-of-the-year for 3 year-olds. He made me wonder what happened to Audible, whose only bad performance, if you can call it that, was 3rd in the Kentucky Derby. He won the Florida Derby and the Holy Bull. In the Florida Derby, he beat Catholic Boy. In the Kentucky Derby, Audible basically tied Good Magic for 2nd and was gaining on Justify into the wire. I don't think he was/is injured, so why would Pletcher and the owners have decided to sit him so long? He's listed tentatively for the Pegasus next year, but you would think they would run him sooner than that, just to get him back into form.

The only way to settle who is HOTY is to have a race with Audible, Catholic Boy and Good Magic. Doesn't look like that is going to happen. I would lean toward Audible being the best horse.
