I would swear on a stack of bibles that Cratos has declared on this board that he, and his "associates", wagered $200,000 to win on Dortmund in the Kentucky Derby. I remember this declaration vividly...because wagers of this size remain rather rare on this board.

However we bounced back with wins from Curalina and HC at unexpected payoffs on Belmont Day.

I don't want to carry on with your nonsense, but you did post the following:

"the 200k bets was an actual statement from YOU, so you need to brush up your memory."

I don't remember posting that, but if I did you should have proof beyond repetitions by other posters.

Also, if you don't care and if it is none of your business, why continue the pursuit?

This forum is moving farther away from quantitative analysis of horseracing at an alarming pace.

Almost as good as his trying to explain how he used "race curves" to bet horses and trotted out Honor Code's first career start as an example.

laughter is the best medicine of all.

Thanks for posting that link; and it is true, but we are not $200,000/wager bettors.

I don't come here to post (or boast) about how much I won or wagered because if you read the post it came in a denial.

However who posted this:

"There isn't anything unscientific about it at all. The faster the surface, the shorter the race time wise. Less time running equals less stamina required."

As usual, I have no idea what point you are trying to make. It isn't me. It is your poor communications skills at fault. We've all seen that many times on this board. You are horrible at conveying your message. It isn't the rest of us. It is you.

I guess you are trying to deflect your lies by posting a statement I made that has nothing to do with anything in this thread. I'm not biting. Good luck.

But in post #240 of THIS thread...you posted that you only wagered "something greater than $20K" on Dortmund in the Derby. Was that post "true", as well? Is THAT what a $200K wager is to you...a wager "something greater than $20K"...which you easily forget ever making?
