What a bummer.... I was planning on watching I Want Revenge win the Derby today.. Damn shame for Talamo.

I met my retired ex-Boss yesterday.. he had a early period bet on IWF at 18-1!!! I’m sure he’s bummed today.

I still love Friesan Fire.. but, at 3/1? Or lower? I dunno.

I might have to put a little on Dunkirk today. I just have a feeling... of course, that may just be remorse.... for all the money I left at Churchill yesterday.

Good Luck All!

In my last post to this thread, last night, I said
“I just don’t think I Want Revenge will win”.
I AM A GENIUS.
HE WON’T WIN

This leaves it open for a whole bunch of horses,
namely Gen. Quarters, West Side Bernie, the two
“Arab” horses, Pioneerofthenile,etc. Papa Clem.
Unfortunately the money that woulda flowed to IWR
making him a heavy fave, will now be distributed
evenly among 3 or 4 others, with probably only tepid
favorites, which might be good, but also generate more $$$$ distributed among horses that woulda been big longshots, which could be bad, as far as payoffs are concerned.
