You're right.

Time does matter. That's what breeding deals are set on. 

That said, monster times usually happen on big days with the track worked to provide as much speed as possible. Best Chip's 1:46.4 was on Pace day, I believe. Dealt A Winner went 45.4 on Hambo day.   He was very good but maybe not a great. But the track was super fast.

Bourbonista  (Melander) winning off a layoff after trotting 48.4 five weeks ago is another.  How does THAT happen? Second fastest trot mile ever belongs to a mare that was mid level condition two months ago. Now she only runs every 3-4-5 weeks and wins big races.

Melander almost won the Mare trot with Tactical Moni. Off 7 weeks. One race in 10 months. How does THAT happen.

I don't know how it happens, but it's bullshit.

Makes me appreciate Bulldog Hanover who went 46.1 or better three straight weeks.

Dealt A Winner went 47.3 on Hambletonian Day

Bulldog is the only one to pace sub 46

One week this forum screams that time means nothing and then the next week it does.

Friday trump said his approval rating should be 150% and this is the " golden age" of the US.


Is it dementia?
Is it lying?
Some combination of both?

It’s amazing when Trump says stupid and dumb things, people believe him!

However, when Vance and the ‘clan’ try to do the same thing, people laugh at them!

TT. sits in....and moves out and engages Dunn

in the straight he wins a neck or more..

He lost ground by pulling early..

Watch the race from the 3/4 on.....


TT pulled earlier and lost ...well lets say more than an inch

around that turn by going wide..

thats why drivers try to go inside a pylon..

shortest point between 2 points is a straight line..

not a curve


watch the race from 3/4 on and u will see he moved

earlier than he had to
he had to pull that horse is coming until he made a break

Facts are the enemy of maga

Even when their own outlets confirm things actually are true too!

If he didn’t make such a shitty deal with Fanduel years ago, he wouldn’t be in this situation, nor would the horsemen
that was a mistake

There is no comparison as far as attire is concerned. T-Bred is much more classy.
