What the Horse Racing Nation is talking about...

Based on dosage and adjusted 12F times, my top four would be: Revolutionary, Golden Soul, Orb Unlimited Budget. I'd throw Oxbow and Palice Malice in the mix, too.

  • travel_vic · ANY evaluation requires a working premise, a series of possibilities and then a game plan to sequentially eliminate those theoreticals that do not fit the facts...Vyjack was a right off before the race : just too slow and the wrong style for that contest.

Off at odds of 15-1, many were speechless when Oxbow won Preakness 138. What a fluke! What a horrible race! Why was it so horrible? Because horseplayers didn’t see it coming due to being blinded by Orb's so-called brilliance. Read More

  • Sully · I was not at all sucked into the Orb hype, and I turned on him in the derby only to eat that from what I believe was the track condition to his liking (even though there was a $10 win wager placed in my honor by a friend that I turned onto him in the FLA Derby). I'm mostly baffled by these "I told you so" or "this is why you should've had the winner" articles coming out after the race. It's so easy to analyze after-the-fact but where are the predictions??? I hope this shit isn't the effort to revitalize the sport because it's f*ing nonsense! · 5 hours ago ·

  • dipak1 · Orb had a chance to be best 3 years old in 2013, but he spoiled that chance loosing the Preakness, he won the derby because of sloppy track as he likes that way, but it was so amazed to see how he floped the good going track in pimilco on Preakness day, in otherwords horse winning in sloopy track does'nt necessarily means will win on the good truck, most of the horse winning in sloopy track have failed to win next race in the dry track. except Secretariat? · 7 hours ago ·

They were treasures when alive, and always given the best treatment any horse could receive - their breakdowns were tragic accidents.
