re: The Road to the 2012 Kentucky Derby

That makes me feel a lot better.

I used to LOVE him, but he's coming off bad in his interviews. Either run the mare or don't, but when you speak don't act like a spoiled child.

Boy used to make fun of me for how much I liked him

I think it bothered him

Still, run her or don't.

Porter sounds awful too.


What are your thoughts on dutrow?

I know it's wrong of me, but I'm secretly happy with every positive test he gets.

I just realized gainesway stands hat trick. If I had the money and a mare that crossed well with him (mine is a c) I'd breed to him. He's the reason I was cheering for Howe great.

Dad came through for me with derby/oaks tickets. Who else will be there?

I wouldn't go if you paid me.

Bodemeister is a stud. He murdered the field at Oaklawn. Really impressive.

Dullahan ran a good race. His move on the turn looked Kentucky Derby-esque, but just not sure how good that field was. Hansen is obviously more well-suited for a shorter track. Bho is right, they should just aim him solely for the Preakness. He's this year's Shackleford.

Trinniberg in now.

Bad news for speed horses

He'll burn them out for 7f then quit.

I may just start pulling out of a hat

Whatever I include I will have daddy nose best in there to hit the board. No idea why, just a weird feeling.

Hit wps on the causeway while waiting for the Lexington. Think I'm gonna play hammers terror in here.

On a side note...

I'm not looking forward to hitting up Evangeline tonight I hate to sound like a snob, but it's not the kind of place I want to go hang out alone. So to keep me occupied, let's keep this thread going tonight

Oaks looks tough too. I will admit that I haven't followed that as well as I should have.

I went Thursday because we had 3 in and I was soooo bored.

At fairgrounds (or hell, even Churchill or keeneland) I could make friends and have fun. This will be a shitty summer.

Got a filly in a stake tonight, but it's open and she's a la bred. She's the favorite, but we'll see. We've had shitty luck lately.

I was really hoping trinni would stay away. I like the colt and it would suck to ruin him if it happened.

70-1 shot in the Lexington! I thought hammers terror would hold on (18-1) but I had to settle for 3rd.

Looks like the 2 who had any shot at getting into the derby ran last and 3rd last.

Talked myself off a $400 exacta and into a $20 wps

First horse was 2nd by a neck.

Filly somehow took the hallowed dream stakes. She's a speed horse, but came from the back late! She has no idea she's a la bred at the top of the stretch I almost quit watching.
