Replying to Gary McCrimmon:
I know he's not going. Would have been something to see!

With Snow Fairy, Danedream, and Nathaniel out, maybe Frankel has a shot and connects will reconsider. Maybe Jimmy Robison will be right after all. OMG!

Frankel in The Arc would be a race for the ages. Just the thought of it makes me drool.

Frankel’s Folks might not want to gamble their perfect record with the only horse that did win his Triple Crown, “ORFEVRE” plus the 2 extra furlongs.“ORFEVRE” – French to English translation = Goldsmith and/or Silversmith(Never approach a Bull from the front, a Horse from the rear, or a fool from any direction! LOL)

Yes Gary. Got it. Thought as a literary type you might pick up one my reference to the other co-favorite and my betting choice.

Gold, Silver, and Dreams

Replying to Gary Moulton:
I think the extra 2F might be part of the reason but another reason might be they didn’t want to gamble their perfect record with the gold&silversmith.

I can't believe the extra 2F makes a difference

Replying to James Robison:
Like I said nothing to prove, take the money by going past GO and go down in history. I can't believe the extra 2F makes a difference but then I'm not in his box 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, maybe that April dinging is still nagging him?

SSSSoooo..., if a horse is injured just run him 10f? Got it!
