I'm kinda upset Knicks Go was able to not only hold on, but win as he pleased after fractions like that early on...not gonna lie.

That was one of the best races by a horse on the lead I've seen in a while.

Well it wasn't like he was running against any quality horses. That field was awful.

The only negative about Knicks Go is that he couldn't have been named after a better basketball team.

Considering even the NY Knicks twitter feed congratulated him on the Pegasus win today, I guess it's irrelevant that he wasn't named with the team in mind:

As a sire at least maybe it'll produce some fun names for fans of the team.

Is the Jockey Club going to allow "Knicks Stink"?

"Think with the Few and speak with the
Many. By swimming against the stream it is
impossible to remove error, easy to fall into
danger; only a Socrates can undertake it. To
dissent from others' views is regarded as an
insult, because it is their condemnation. Disgust
is doubled on account of the thing blamed and of
the person who praised it. Truth is for the few,
error is both common and vulgar. The wise man is
not known by what he says on the house-tops, for
there he speaks not with his own voice but with
that of common folly, however much his inmost
thoughts may gainsay it. The prudent avoid being
contradicted as much as contradicting: [U]though
they have their censure ready they are not ready
to publish it. Thought is free, force cannot and
should not be used to it. [U]The wise man therefore
retires into silence, and if he allows himself to
come out of it, he does so in the shade and before
few and fit persons."

Knicks are still the most valuable NBA franchise in terms of monetary value.


have no idea how the pandemic has affected 'court-side' accommodation tickets / prices

That's actually the problem Clippers fans faced for years. Mere location ensured Donald Sterling made millions even if his team was terrible.

It isn't a compliment that Knicks owners are making so much money despite fielding bad teams. It's an outrage.

So, you think that perhaps a higher quality field would have changed the outcome?
I highly doubt it.
If you’re going to run against those type of fractions you’d better have a lot in the tank!

You saw what happened to Nashville when he met quality horses. Charlatan would have run by him on the far turn and Knicks Go would have quit badly.
