Buying pretty horses is nice. Betting money is what horse racing needs. The pretty horses will appear.

The Leopard was the Fasig Tipton Calder sales topper the year after The Green Monkey.

Wayne's pretty good at blowing through money. Just ask him.

Yeah that is a bargain buy for Baker & Mack.

They must be thrilled he broke his maiden.

If it wasn't for Oaklawn....Lukas would be hard pressed to hit at 8% for the year.

He probably tells them he might have the next Proud Citizen.

It's like a slight single-race takeout reduction.

I wish more hopelessly overmatched horses would enter more races.

Why? Any bettor with an IQ over 38 wants horses entered in races they don't belong or don't have any chance at all.

Now more than ever especially with the advent of smaller minimums like the 10-cent superfecta and the constant overuse of the "all button" and the fact that too many people still baseball exactas and trifectas.
