I am not obsessed with final quarters and final times--so I will bet Tetrick over Allan Davis

not much separating them on paper

Jason’s barn has been good lately.  Would like to see his horse kick Jimmy and Timmy’s asses.  That show is getting old!

Sorry no, I was thinking of his fully in the final.  I hope shahans beats him.  Bier has beat cop and I hope the same.  But I’m sure it’s tank will be full.

No responses for those outrageous prices for a DELAWARE BRED

The final with a purse of $110k coming up--winner gets $55k immediately

not to mention they can race at Harrington for another set of DSBF races

those two tower over the others-so it is somewhat of a guarantee they get a good portion of the purchase price back

Captain Pete by 5 lengths in the mud and wind....1.54.4... ...prediction

If they pace huge miles, THERE WILL BE BUYERS !!!

Look at GOOGOOGAGA.  You talk about weak breeding. If the horses go very fast. PEOPLE WANT THEM

Many of the NZ imports are from NZ sires that most never hear over. People pay big bucks for these horses. Why: because they go fast.

the Finals are only going for $51k total purse--now I agree they are high purchase prices

I believe the Finals at Harrington in late July have the $110 purses

once they face open company at age 4--they are just another low level claimer racing in Delaware

there are rare occasions when they are true Grand Circuit horses--Powerful Mist comes to mind about a dozen years ago

$110k 3yo final is in the fall of this year when Dover comes back.  This is just another series for them.  Also the $110k final at Harrington in July.

they both can go 51 and change--i seriously don't think the weather will slow them 15 lengths but you could be correct

There may be buyers, but the offers will be no big deal. These Delaware horses are complete garbage buckets and these two are just clearly the best of a VERY, VERY bad crop. Neither of these two are heading for the Grand Circuit and they will be overnight conditioned animals by their 4 year old season.

Rain forecast for most of the day Thursday.  Doubt they will on faster than 53 and change, but who knows.

Last minute?  Race is tomorrow.  But I’ll go captain Pete by 1 in 153.2
Title: Re: Super showdown at Dover Downs next Thursday
Post by: Papillon on March 27, 2024, 05:44:31 PM
I predict a very typical overdrive by Allan Davis, Tetrick to sit as close as he can--then Beat Cop goes by late.

I think both horses will be odds on.

Post by: onabrake on March 28, 2024, 07:55:50 PM
These are Delaware rats that came a last quarter in 31 plus with the two biggest rats backing through the field. Awful collection of cheap claimers.

 SUPER SHOWDOWN ngc3 Can't believe there was actually a thread about those horses.
 Just shy of a minute home and like ONABRAKE said 31 last qtr. Sweet action there. tmbz1

Tetrick over drove his horse....can anyone say anything differently....th e bionic man was wrong............ ........that is what is laughable.....yes .............DELA WARE BREDS suck............. ........

Nice group of 10K claimers going for 51K
Title: Re: Super showdown at Dover Downs next Thursday
Post by: Bitter Truth on March 28, 2024, 09:15:23 PM
 No they can't go in 1:51 + change. Just looked at the times for other races. One in 1:51.4
several in 1:52 + so no excuse. I will say I agree overdriven by Tetrick but I also agree that
his horse looked kinda lame. Much to do about nothing.

Surprised TT pulled when he did. No other driver was going to go first up.

Isn't it a wonder how when the meets over and the top trainers go out of state, they're mostly also rans? Take Crissman, Bier, Glassmeyer, Davis and Stafford for instance. Thought to beat in Delaware but stumble at Chester and Pokeynose. Wonder why? Juice or is it they're against legit racehorses?

Beat Cop bought last year for 85....Captain Pete bought last month for 125.....

After yesterday, neither is worth 25k. Imagine paying 125 last month and watch your horse "pace" a final quarter in 31 flat on a track that was yielding 51 and 52 miles in almost every other race. Amish are calling.

Both horses driven poorly.......Alan Davis and Tetrick are just too pompous.......... ..............Tet rick has been babied his entire life and really doesn't care that he just cost those owners some $$$$$

It's you're moron...so i guess that means YOU'RE the idiot!  And they both drove a bad race...and I believe Timmy T. could care less about a small time stakes race.
