The War of Will Conundrum

[unusualpete]

OK. His trainer swore up and down that he had a minor injury in the LAD which made him misfire.  Watched the replay and feel it likely Casse's telling the truth.  He's the 6.  It happens near the start.  WoW takes some weird steps with his hind legs, looking like a person does when they roll an ankle whatnot.  Probably pulled a muscle or hyper extended something.   

Feels like the general consensus is since he posted a clunker he therefore isn't a contender anymore.   Quite intrigued with him now that he reps value.  Choosing to draw a line through his LAD.  Worked at KEE yesterday, 5f :59.0 BG.  Clockers comment, "Casse derby hopeful put in the best move of the morning. War of Will went from the gate getting his 1/2 in :46.1 and galloping out 6 Furlongs in 1:11.3"   Had a lot of luck with Casse charges over the years and feel like there's a read for when they're gonna pop.  This one has it.  The hunt for value never ends.

I have a futures on him and won on him therefore I hope so. For a contrary view clocker Bruno Dejulio said his workout was an example of how you can't judge a workout by the time, and he did not not care for it.I don't know what to think

Never had any luck with Casse,not a fan. But that is a story best told at the blanket.

Think of uic as the internet blanket and go from there Hoop Dreams.    It's a good tease you make and piques the interest.  Not enough to prompt travel to the spa though.

On the subject of works in general, I love to watch them. I do worry sometimes that for me I am subject to confirmation bias, i.e. I see what I "want" to see. That said, the one work that flipped me on a Derby betting choice was Barabaro's at CD.

I liked him before the LAD. Not sure works are enough to get me back, but I am persuadable. I do have a future on him, also, so hoping for the best. Will probably include underneath, at least.

Torn. Legit excuse, appears to be getting well, but feel like there's too many lengths to find most of the time in order to finish first. He'll find a length, length and a half some of the time, but thinking he needs 3, 3 1/2 & he almost never does that.

Hooper, thanks.
