Thanks!!!

ice box. Wasn't leparoux on him too?

He waits tooooooooo long

I wish they'd gotten moh here last week. Sucks for him :(

btw r2r, boy has 4 in at la downs tomorrow. He's the asst and just got these horses, but rushmore should do well. Boy actually made his boss claim him. He also worked 3 in 35 in his last work, but the clockers fricked up the distance and got him pulling up. Boy was pissed. I told him it's fine because it keeps his odds down.

heads up to you guys.. a Leroidesanimaux colt (Temple's Door) just won a 1 1/4 m race at Hollywood Park a few minutes ago. Leroidesanimaux has a son running in the Derby.. in case you didn't know.

Yes, I actually live about 5 minutes from the track. As far as fun goes, I guess it depends on how many beers I have had and if Robby is losing.

I bet him in the Bluegrass. He didn't do much for me on that day.

Interesting Poll I found on Equibase. It asks who will win the Derby. The choices are:
Uncle Mo
Dialed in
Archx3
Master of Hounds
Other

Anybody else think that some random 30-1 horse being on this list is strange?

Just put a tad in on tvg for the Oaks. I just was over there looking at charts and saw that. I couldn't believe he was on the list.

well Equibase is definitely frequented by more savvy horse racing fans. i bet if ESPN took a nation-wide poll he wouldn't even get 5%.
