He was 6 wide half the race and had nothing whatsoever after getting spooked.
There will be all these people with conspiracy theories from the quarter crack, to his shoe slipping off, to him not having Winstrol off the first time and then racing to anything you can imagine.... The fact is IMHO is he got spooked down on the inside, never got comfortable, acted like a bitch, and quit on the race. He has no heart. $60 million for his offspring is comical at this point for a horse who got in a tight spot once in his life and folded like an accordion.
Interested to hear other people's opinions and congrats to those who faded him and banked!!!  |
When he took that dump in the ring, I thought I was in trouble(I will usually bet on the horse that takes a load off)
1 thing I noticed before the race, he looked big & hot already, and with the heat and humidity, it didn't look good for him.
I thought he would get the lead outta the gate, and before the 1st turn, it already appeared he was already outta gas(his head was pullin' away and not darting forward)
He supposedly hasn't received any steroids for some time, probably because of the money he received as a donor, but an injection coulda been helpful.
I understand why kent pulled him up($50mil ridin' on his sperm), and I was even shoutin' at the tv, get the hell off that horse, I didn't wanna see him collapse.
I was 7 yrs old, the year of the last triple crown winner, and I have seen stronger horses fail since then. I just went with history on my bet, as it was worthless to try and make any money bettin' him to win.
I think BB will be back for 1 more, then they will stud that UPS truck.
