In your book, a horse has to be a leader to be a champion. Do you know how ridiculous that is ?
Considering what day it is why don't you apply it to the Melbourne Cup - because it would be flamin ridiculous ! (that Makybe Diva never did it from the front - what a soft winner)

??? I know they were going fast but why didn't Gold Ace ever lock FAR up
I never once said a horse has to lead to be a champion.

Gold Ace could not keep up that was the reason it didnt put FAR in a pocket. The leader as i have said was running way to quickly. Cant put brains in some drivers who oviously cant read races as well as i can. Your referral to a Melbourne Cup shows what you know maybe you should be at the Melbourne Cup with the otther 100 thousand mug punters who have no idea. Oh and while im here I was tipping Red Cadeux in the Cup maybe Gerald Moose needs a lesson on where the Fence is once again sits 3 wide and took off way to early...
