I had the chance to spend some time with him today.....
asked about a few of his horses....

Keyed Entry... was supposed to run next week at belmont, the race did not fill, and will either run next week in a 200k stakes at philly park, or the following week in a 200k stakes at monmouth

Monba...... possible fall return... quote from don " anything is possible, maybe even the turf"

Why Tonto... was going to be out till the fall, doing very well right now, and possible for a summer-fall campaign, they are high on him.

I AM NOT.

I just made a few future BC bets on Why Tonto.

I hope for his sake you don't mean normal compared to you.

The tragic news then, I guess, is it's NY and not California.

i mean normal, like we were at a betting spot all day... he bet no more then 20 bucks on anyrace... was dressed like a bum, and sat with a otb regular for over 3 hours, and shared a pizza with him... thats pretty normal to me.

You should call in to ATR on Monday and share the story.

the guy is very, i dont know the word, NORMAL...he was not even sure about most of his horses, he said todd makes 90% of the decisions, EXACT opposite of dutrow and IEAH, dutrow said this morning on Down The Stretch, that what the owners say goes.
