Default The Green Monkey running Saturday (honest!)

Well if he actually gets in the gate and finishes the race green monkeys will officially have flown out of someone's arse. Allegedly he's at Belmont against maidens 3yr and up on 9/15. I'm hoping it'll be on during the 3-6pm TVG feed so I can tape it while I'm at a football game. Can someone check?

If memory serves me correctly this races was either the fourth or fifth so it will probably have a post time of 2:3X or 3:0X.

You should be able to tell when the race is if you look at the www.Nyra.com and look at future entries. It should tell you there.

C'mon folks, I think we're being a little hopeful/naive to think he might be in the Classic...he's clearly pointing for the Dubai World Cup off of what will become a 6 month layoff. Unless of course this maiden race for 3yos and up is part of the "win and you're in" thing.
