So much for that...

[TGJB]

Golden Ticket, Authenticity, Take Charge Indy all out of the routes on 3/30 GP (DOJ huge number day). The last two paired their previous figure that day, if you make their last race worse they look much worse going into this weekend.

If the big figure pairs, we are going to be in for some show.

[TGJB]

That\'s not going to happen. Question is how far she goes back, and it\'s a guessing game. But if she bounces 5 it would STILL be a show, unless she\'s very wide.

[Wrongly]

JB thanks for your take.  You took a lot of crap for those GP figs.

[TGJB]

Randy said he\'s going to lead with our DOJ figure on the broadcast so damn good thing...

Though now people watching will expect another.

[Perfect Drift]

I understand nobody pays a mortgage at 8-5 (9 minutes to post)... but how in the world is D of J not 1-2?  Rachel went of 1-5 in the Oaks after winning a dinky prep at Oaklawn and the FG Oaks.

One of those rare gifts..  Don\'t fall off Johnny V.

Never wanna see Borel again bitch about someone else aggressive move.  His gate move was criminal.  He should get punched in the nose.

Horse was empty after the pinch. With what looks like a mediocre time, Julia was horrific.

[sekrah]

Any jockey who goes into the race with a pre-emptive plan to smash the favorite out of the gate, should be suspended for a minimum of 15 days.  If Churchill Downs doesn\'t come down on him, that\'s a disgrace.  Not holding my breath.

I thought the favorite ran remarkable in defeat.

[high roller]

He did the same thing years ago to Lookin for Lucky - your correct it was done on purpose - But Churchill has never had a DQ on these days since Dancer\'s Image!

[P-Dub]

The winner didn\'t have a very smooth start either.

[badride123]

She ran Dynamite P-Dub.

[TreadHead]

Those with replays on TwinsSpires can see the head-on of the start at the 3:04 mark of the replay.  Borel takes a left turn out of the gate and makes absolutely no attempt whatsoever to ever yank his horse back to the right.  He moves inward about 3 or 4 paths and then straightens.  Absolutely criminal.

Between him and the stunt Albarado pulled on the 9 horse in the Alysheba wiping out more than half the field, there had better be some suspensions handed out if there is any integrity left in this game.  I\'m not trying to make an excuse for DOJ or saying that would have made a difference, but I never want a race to be lost this way.
