Fair or not, bob has become radioactive. My opinion on him was formed yrs ago. Didnt take more than coming from quarter horse racing and his win percentage to sway me. But i dont have to be fair. Im probably in the plus column with my ten or twenty wagers on his horses lifetime. When he shipped into Saratoga Racetrack for a big race his horses were often well meant. Especially plus was if the horse was lightly raced in triple crown races and facing horses sucessful but used in triple crown.
Band doesnt have much of an impact except another personal body blow to the former golden boy! He looked like hell on preakness day.
