"It's WEAK SAUCE, it's greedy owners, it's gutless thinking and there's no way that we should allow horses that win the Derby to skip the Preakness."
@MarkZinno on Golden Tempo
Mark Zinno@MarkZinno
Translation: We were a 23-1 long-shot to win the Derby and don’t think we would win the shorter track against a horse like Renegade again. So we will preserve our horse’s health — AHEM! “Value” — and get the max we can for future stud fees. Gutless horse owners have killed this sport. They prioritize money over wins and legacy. She’s not the first, nor the last do this. It’s just destroyed this once insanely popular sport.

@atTheTrack7 horse racing was much better when the horses were drugged out of their mind

Golden Tempo: With fractions of 22.3, 46.2, 110.4, I really don't understand why the race fell apart this badly. This was not the radioactive pace we saw in 2022 (21.3, 45.1, 1:10.1) or 2001 (22.1, 44.3, 1:09.1), but it still fell apart like it was, which probably speaks to a lack of quality in the race compared to previous years. He let it all develop in front of him and picked up all the pieces. My guess, if you run this race 100 times, Renegade probably wins close to 50 of them. Really not sure how he got out-run by this horse, who ran a terrific race, but the speed figures really tell the tale here.

@chucktodd Stick to transgenders, climate change, and illegals, Chucky.

Sigh… Please, Triple Crown people, create a schedule that encourages participation in all three races. This stubbornness about the dates of these races is self-defeating. Most major sporting events have allowed their schedules to change to accommodate changes in the sport.

From Cherie DeVaux: Golden Tempo will skip the Preakness Stakes and point to the Belmont.

@reredevaux The dream setup Golden Tempo got in the Derby will never repeat again.
Another Mine That Bird, Rick Strike.
May never win another race, ever.

Sorry not sorry... 😂
When I worked at a golf club, I saw all sorts of golfers turn up
- The tour pro
- The club champ
- The recreational golfer who plays twice a week
- And the worst... the cooperate day golfer
Here's how each golfer picks up a bag... Which one are you? 😉😜

@PicksByDynasty Horse racing was better when Bob was massively drugging his horses
English
Can’t wait to see how the Baffert loyalist on here react to this one 😅
David Aragona@HorseToWatch
Over the last 2 years, Bob Baffert is 6 for 50 (12%) in graded stakes outside of Southern California, with a $2 ROI of just $0.71. In Grade 1 races outside of SoCal, he is 2 for 34 (6%) with a $0.34 ROI over the last 2 years.

@UlwellingRacing This is the correct strategy.
I quit 18 months ago.

Think of this is terms of $$$: a million seconds is roughly 11.5 days…a billion seconds is 31.5 years

@DonQuick53 Just revisiting this to say THANK YOU, has definitely helped
English
@DonQuick53 For sure, but for some odd reason they sometimes seem more active there than at other times. Also important to note that there exist lone-wolf rogues also influential in mnr pools.

Favorites just 1 for last 18 races at Mountaineer and hit for goose egg last nite. Can't recall similar stretch. Would not chalk (no pun intended) this up to freakish racing luck or even-despite yesterday's distinct pro-rail bias-surface conditions. The late money has been making THE WRONG FAVORITES. Fortune smiling right now on retail bettors.

@failedtomenace @KentuckyDerby I liked the game much better when they'd inject massive amounts of drugs into horses with early speed.

@thestaggieman wait until the leader reaches the 1/4 pole. If clear by 2+ lengths; BET BIG.
