Peter Foley On Scratching Duer and Changing Jug Format

[The Giss]

Duer- either. Check Me Out has been so dominant in her division, I would probably abstain, or if Maven get the jump on her somewhere, put her on top of the division.

i was reading the rules on the L.B.J. it was kindy funny cause i dont remember reading anything saying you had to race in both heats. unless i misread something it was the decision of the parties in charge not to race his horse in the final. he wasnt going to get horse of the year anyway. maybe he didnt feel like it wasnt a good day for his horse. maybe he knew something no one else does. so until anyone here is put in the same position. dont be hatin

You should know he announced this strategy a week or two BEFORE the Jug so it wasn't something that happened that day. 

My opinion is that he sure as hell could've won 3 yo Horse of the Year (until last week's poor result, which was karma) by winning the Jug & BC.

He is a great colt, but not HOY material in my opinion. He is an overachiever that really never was quite the best, even before the Jug, in my eyes.
