Funny how the process of human socialization just doesn't seem to take with certain individuals.

Look forward to your update and as always respect your opinion.

Second that - both the concerns about Bode and the big thanks to PA.
Bode put up big numbers over... Secret Circle.
I wish I knew more about the "bounce" theory so I could tell if Bode was really a candidate.

Do you guys want to be scientists or handicappers? I hear the global warming people are looking for help at Al Snore U. Handicapping is an art, not a science and these are flesh and blood animals, not machines. I'm hoping you guys continue it

You know, there is a QUOTE button so you don't have to write "CJ wrote".
I don't care what people call me, as long as I make money. You are all smoke and mirrors, no substance, at least yet. Maybe at some point you'll post a decent opinion that makes money, but until then, your words are shallow.

CJ's figs just nailed the $29 winner of the Oaks.
The place horse was a point higher if you went past his slow paced last race.
I think his homework gets an A+

Well, he EXPLODED alright. There was nothing left of him at the end, as is the way with things that explode.
Of course, I think that might not have quite been what SoF meant by EXPLODE...
