Don't say I never gave you fellas a winning 2 combo tri 34/34/2
very happy for Beau now we can start threads about his comeback and how he will "rip their heads off" after beating four Gold Series horses
Maybe the best pacer ever I am happy for him as well.As I said earlier, that race was now or neverDoc said after the race.. maybe Simcoe and or LBJ in the future I would love to see him in person in Delaware If not see him at Scioto in October Hopefully both
Helps to get a trip even in a short field. Trips have been brutal prior to this.
I doubt there was a bigger "fan" of BJ here than me. Absolutely, it's nice that he won, hopefully he's healthy, and so on. But, as much as I was a big time fan of the horse, let's not go down the road of "he's back" so quickly. Short, and so-so at best field, easy fractions, big last quarter, and while he wasn't abused and all out, he was closer to all out than he was in hand. Yes, he had to close into a 25.2 last quarter, and sure, that's a very strong finish, but how he did what he did is a long way from "he's back." IMO, he was an exceptional colt, very, very talented, with perhaps unlimited potential. He was light years ahead of the class as a 2yo. He just didn't progress, move forward, come back better, and so on at 3, and the rest of the class caught up to him. I am sure getting a bit sick didn't help matters either, but if he didn't, I am not sure it would have made a difference. I hope he gets back to 100%. Still a fan.
