Default Hey Arlington Folks

Sadly, Ive never been to Arlington, but I know that several posters are there all the time. It looks like a really nice place.

I just want to give a "heads up" to those that are there to look for a couple of horses.
Best of Buddies won on 7/29. I follow this one because his sire, Best of Luck, lives at High Cliff Farm here in beautiful Delanson, NY. (Flying Zee)
btw, my mare is in foal to him.
Another one to look for is LaMilagra, sired by Kelly kip, same farm.
2nd last...look for improvement.

I'll get out to Chi town soon.

Good luck!
DTS

Wayne, I know both horses well. I had Best of Buddies in his MSW, they got a little nuts going into an Illinois bred race but he won his last out ultra impressively

Having just returned from Saratoga, Arlington sadly will never be the same to me again. The searches of computer bags and coat pockets will irratate me more than usual and forgetabout the 5 dollar beers (no beer allowed to be brought in) and tellers who want you to bet on their schedules. It is a beautiful track but is rotten in so far as the way it is managed and the racing (except this Sat) it provides. How many races can you stand with 5-6 horses in each going for a 10K tag or less?
That said thanks for the heads up. There aren't many local horses to be afraid of, that's for sure!

Sooner or later, they will justify building that place
