Cardus, moronic reply - yes...YOURS.
You honestly are under the assumption that most of the 29,000 people on track and the tens of thousands off track know silks? Most people have no access at all to what the silk colors are, other than the post parade, which most do not see. What about some guy with a 4-horse box? Contrary to your delusion, it is NOT general awareness. Are you so thick you can't understand that?
I merely suggested you might want everyone to bet your horse because YOU think you are King Shit when it comes to watching races. It seemed to me that only YOU could know what is good for everyone else.
Hint- if you had used the word advocated instead of argued, I would have known what you were talking about - you should learn to use the correct words when you post! I can only assume you understand everything you post. We have definitions of words so that we can properly communicate. But now you have gone and argued the point, so I reiterate...what a stupid thing to argue. But, hardly unexpected from you.
