you should claim the 4 in the first race




Dude thats a rat. I bet the trainer would sell the horse to you at a discounted price after the race.

I could easily make my money back+ on that horse.

Has every soft condition there is, to pick up purses. And trainers are claiming him race after race.

Give him 1 try on the turf at 12K claimers. Then bring him to Fairmount park or a track that runs 6 1/2 or 7 furlongs.

Horse looks like they are riding him like retards. I'd change everything, and get him to stay 4-5 lengths off, onstead of in the paddock.

people will keep taking chances on it on the pedigree alone and $4k is about as low of a claim as you can find. guarantee someone is claiming it tonight. someone is making the drive from fairgrounds/delta/sam houston with their trailor

equibase scored it a 91 E-Speed score. didnt get claimed.

second place closed on the leaders, took the lead at the 1/4 pole and got wired by a deep close.

Glad to see Paulina Ramirez is back on the mounts. Hadnt followed delta but it doesn’t seem she has been doing as good as she was before her break.

The old track was one of the most entertaining tracks I've been in. Knew a horse owner, so every time I went it was a party. No boredom between races, just barbecue and liquid refreshment. Plus they told us who to bet on for every race, and I remember being in the money every race! Came home with a pocket full of money. It was like getting paid to have as much fun as possible. We had fun watching the races from our seats too!

Is knowing an assistant DA in North Louisiana, that owns horses that run in Lafayette just Louisiana thing? I mean, is that OK in every state?

Open horse running for no money there wont be many claims for hum unless theres a sucker out there and theres plenty of them in this game. Hell even Cox couldnt even get the horse to win

Didn't see that, which makes him even easier to make cash with. you can run him for another 4-5 years

91 e-speed would go off at 1/2 at Gillespie county fairgrounds in Fredericksburg Texas in two months in the 6f allowance class and would wipe the ground with those horses who run ~50. Hell it could probably win at retama and pay out 20k this summer on a 4K investment. Just need a barn. It doesn’t really even train. Get it on retama once a month for a vet check

It already beat one broberg horse with odds tonight.

We should have split the bid and had diat or Aspercel find a stable for it

Tonight was a career high speed figure. It has more to run

The 7f time was ok. JUst slightly slower than allowance class at evd runs it. If you could slide it in a 6.5f somewhere for cheap you might have a shot. It likes the obscure distances no doubt.

Did you come into contact with this horse at some point? I feel like I made an offhand comment after searching the pedigree when I saw into mischief on the entry list and this has taken off. An evd thread should never go this long.

You seem exceptionally salty about a random arse $4k claimer. Who happens to be a full sibling to a G3 winner

I can’t imagine how angry you get in actually frustrating facets of life

How many races do they have on a Friday night in July? Also how's the food at the track and would we be better off eating in town?

Usually around 9-10.

The steak restaurant in the casino is ok but the others arent good. Not many good restaurants in Opelousas so I’d recommend pizza shack which is very very good.

If the clubhouse is open that's your spot. If not there is a decent sports bar on the casino floor for between races unless you enjoy the crowd downstairs (i do). If the weather is nice hang out outside. Have fun and good luck.
