my latest info on tgm is that he will debut in the bc sprint and then run a few hours later in the classic. that way he can get the eclipse for sprinter, 3yo and hoy.

he'll then be retired with them saying he has nothing further to prove.

and I'M SERIOUS!

Silly rabbit everybody knows he's gonna run in the Dirt Mile on day 1 and BC Turf the next day. Both surfaces, short and long.. if he stays in one piece after both they'll claim totally obvious soundness. Can't lose. I was gonna do Turf Sprint and BC Classic but unless he can masquerade as a filly (indeed an achievement) he can't do the F&M Turf Sprint.

I love the idea! An entire career in two races over three hours. Three eclipse's, 5 Mill in purses and then off to a cozy retirement.

These one day careers might be the thing of the future. It would really simplify things because we wouldn't need past performances, just the breeding and workout reports.

I personally think The Green Monkey is a mythical creature, kinda like the Loch Ness Monster or Big Foot. People sayyyyy they have seen them but I have my doubts.

Mythical you say?
I'll have you know that I saw the Loch Ness Monster while hiking up in Oregon when I was young!

And I AM NOT intending that to be funny! (did i succeed?)

If it turns out The Green Monkey is real, remind me to go look up the Toothfairy. I need to borrow some of what I forked over in my childhood rather than get a crown put on my back molars. Seriously she got those teeth for a steal. Would any of us fork over an incisor for a quarter nowadays? I didn't think so.

Seriously is TGM something Indiana Jones will be searching for in the new movie? That's what it sounds like to me.
