interesting note, Ruff and Ready is named after Zachary Tyler.

i want to say icy atlantic but everytime I bet him he throws in a clunker and when I don't bet him he blows the field away. so I'm damned regardless.

I agree w/ you regarding Icy Atlantic, he certainly has the ability to be the class of the race, though. I have an idea--- you denounce Icy Atlantic and say he has no chance, I'll bet my house and savings on it, and we'll split the profits. lol!

Soldier's Dancer has been fairly consistent lately, although not against this kind of class.

The "Ye olde failed forgotten derby prospect" award for this race goes to Birdbirdistheword. Who even knew this horse still existed???

I'm an Icy A. fan, I think it's his time to do well again.

bdw

If you bet Icy you were damned....


DDT

i didn't play icy because as much as his ass has burned me he wasn't value until he hit about 7 to 1. he never did. so i stayed out because if I had bet on someone else he would have broke a track record (like he did against me in August)

with that said I went back and looked at all of war mongers races.. he's a good colt but I think ESPN was overexaggerating how good he is. he's not THAT good. he's good. he's nice. but he's not in the class with Nobiz, Kip Deville and horses of that calibur.
