- I think we're going to end up keying Always Dreaming & Irish War Cry. If IWC winds up way bigger odds than I expect (which wouldn't shock me), I could see us convincing ourselves to base all our bets on him. And when he runs up the track, I'm going to claim I saw it coming.
- Looks like I'm going to force McCraken into a lot of our bets while you force Tapwrit in, which is fine.
- Irap is going to end up being the horse we shockingly use a ton b/c we can't come up with anything else to use a ton.
- Every year we end up liking one horse all the sudden for no reason whatsoever. I'm going to bet right now that Hence is that horse.
- Looks like we're gonna stand pat on trying to beat Classic Empire. That'll end well.
- The dumb horses we're going to use too much and I'm going to have token Oaks-Derby doubles with my dumb Oaks horse Ever So Clever are Practical Joke & State of Honor. I don't think I totally agree with your PJ assessment, but he's got talent.
