Couple of his comments on two of the horses!!


Q: Steve: Do you think that Afleet Alex will be overbet and at what price do you consider him value?

Steven_Crist: I like him as a racehorse and have rooted for him a lot but I think he is a horrendous underlay as the 5-2 favorite in this race. He had a perfect trip in the Derby and was outfinished. And maybe it's time to point out that he's 1-for-5 going a mile or more.





Q: With 100% hindsight might you have had reason to reconsider Giacomo?


Steven_Crist: Absolutely not. I don;t understand why so many horseplayers think that Giacomo was the correct answer to a riddle they failed to solve. It's horse racing. Sometimes races fall apart and 50-1 shots outclunk the others. It doesn't mean you missed something.

And 1 MORE

Steven_Crist: Greetings all. You know, I DID give out the $9814 Derby exacta. Unfortunately, it was in answer to the question, "Give me five throwouts."
