As you obviously have a problem with using time, I posted before the race and commented specifically on how four of the horses who went postward in this race were also nominated to the Test. The running of this race 24 hours before the Test surprised me.

I hope you cashed in a big way on the tremendous value this horse offered. Next time do us a favor and post in the Selections room. It's open 24 hours, so you won't have to use a clock.

Don't call me Thomas.

I don't disagree, but alot of people have had one foot in the grave and went on to enjoy the next 20 years on a beach somewhere drinking pina coladas with a 24 year old girl with huge jugs

She could be - her sire was 2-for-2 on the turf and the dam ran her best lifetime Beyer on the turf despite making just one start over it - appearently in a stakes race.

He reiterated today in the winner's circle that he won't sell her.

I am glad he scratched out of the last and ran her in this spot.. Frankel was watching today's card sitting next to Gann wondering how much it would take to get her into the barn. This one has a look that they went for... Who cares about the page the bitch can run...Frankel/Gann would have there fun with this one

The Frankel/Gann combo probably would have employed the gold digging stripper to work her magic and put a full court press on the poor guy right after the horse won its debut by a city block at FL.

Maybe they weren't that slick - but it sure felt like it when they were still alive and going good.

Seemed to me they always played the game and had fun.. Buy horses that can run instead of guessing if they can ever run. How many can you remember?

You wonder why guys like Satish etc. just dont buy these types? The guy spent 200mil on yearlings, he could have bought 100 runners that he KNEW could run a 100 plus BSF without guessing.

he did grab a piece of Curlin

They also bought a horse named Labamta Babe off of a trainer named Elvis Cobb after it romped in a 30K MCL race at Ellis Park .. the horse dominated the Grade 2 Santa Catalina and looked like one of the favorites for the Derby - but got hurt and didn't run again till the King's Bishop.

Also they had Midas Eyes - who ran too good to believe in his first start for them after two ok Calder races for Hatchett.
