speculators,liars and fools

[Flighted Iron]

Some of the threads regarding RTR are preposterous at best.Let\'s see.
We have SS claiming HIS vet saw RTR lame.New Bolton\'s reputation carries slightly
more weight with most rational horsemen.Who\'s the LIAR here?
We have people saying RTR\'s supposed fevers were covering up her actual lameness.
THIS MUST BE TRUE BECAUSE HORSES NEVER GET FEVERS OR SICK FOR THAT MATTER.Who\'s
is the FOOL here?
Lastly,but certainly not leastly,we have people stating Pletcher/Tabor knew
RTR was lame,covered it up and decided to roll the dice with their multi-million
dollar horse\'s career and LIFE!These would definitely qualify as the SPECULATORS
or the FOOLS who are just LYING to themselves.

Before many major races ,backstretch rumors will begin to fly about a horse, usually the favorite or a choice.For the most part they are nonsense but yet spread.

Firstly,Angel Cordero sat on RTR many mornings and is very familiar with what unsoundness feels like. Second, whenever RTR went to the track some of the most informed racing \"eyes\" were watching and if she was lame, it would have been page 1 DRF stuff, not some rumor from an undisclosed source.

What part the injury played in her getting beat, if any, is pure speculation.Also, in reviewing the race tape, head on, it is obvious (in the stretch) that johnny v is tugging on the right line to get RTR to eyeball Lears Princess and run straight(seen many jocks try this manuever to embold their horse)RTR did drift inward several paths( fatigue or the injury probably)

What race was she about to run in in early July when multiple reports came out of Belmont Park that she came off the track lame that morning?

It doesn\'t get reported on DRF\'s page 1 when most press people wouldn\'t know a lame horse if it had a sign hanging around its neck which says, \"LAME HORSE\".  It also doesn\'t get reported on DRF\'s page 1 when the reporter questions Pletcher and Pletcher says she has a fever.  
 
Way too coincidental for me, when multiple people report her lame and then the very next morning Pletcher says she can\'t go out to the track because she has a fever.  That\'s enough right there to say the reports were true, but then soon after when she goes out to work, her exercise rider (and it wasn\'t Angel) pulled her up because she felt off.

Steet,

Multiple people. Who are they and what do they know.You drank too much Kool aide.RTR was dead lame and the Belmont was fixed by Tabor/Pletcher and two jocks. Have a nice day!
