He may have I just don't remember. Tommy Faul broke a couple for me a few years ago. His daddy used to pull the gates at the Quarter Pole when we bush tracked. Man the stories I could tell.


Aspy of course, he is smart lol.

Yes I remember the 'Fog' race at Delta. Not sure what he was thinking that night, but he did just join the race.

He's a good guy, we rode him before. His boy is doing well in the northeast.

I remember one night at Jefferson Downs, Jeff Faul was on my buddy horse. Jeff got pissed at them for some reason. When they were loading in the gate, Jeff got off and said the horse wasn't right.
Anyway, Kelly Broussard got on him and won going away. Paid like $36.00. We gave Jeff some shite when he came out for the next race.

If only I had read TD earlier today. I had the exacta and tri. Got headed by your 4 for the super. I could have used the extra 4-5 thou in my pocket.

The Appleton super did me good tho.

May want to look at Palice Malice next time out. He was slammed shut on the rail. Looked like a winner until the block happened.

The start is everything. You can be the quarterhorse equivalent of Secretariat and it doesn't matter if something bad happens out of the gate. Last week I was watching a race at Louisana Downs where a horse veered into the prohibitive favorite right out of the gate and basically eliminated him from contention. And the stewards rarely call interference in QH races, it seems.

I've been looking for a video of that race. I saw it on TV once but haven't found it on the internet. The Twinspires archive doesn't go back that far.
