I say let him keep running...provides better value on the horses he runs against. Keep making him the favorite!

Can anyone give me the visual of the race, please?

I wanted to watch for the laugh, but i had a bigger laugh watching England fail to qualify for Euro 2008!

It amazes me that people keep burning their money on him. But as long as they do, I am going to look at the overlays in the race that TGM creates.

Don't get me wrong because I'm not rooting against this horse, but why in the name of Cranberry sauce would people want to bet this horse down to even money? Of course the funny thing is, I bet against this horse and still lost. Anyway, maybe this horse will put it together someday, but not with my money.

What now? Wait for soft turf and a distance of 1 5/8? Eventually they're going to run out of surfaces. Do they give him another year before they decide it's hopeless? (Notice I didn't say before any of us decide it's hopeless).

The Green Monkey needs to watch the Saturday Night Live self affermation skits, "I'm good enough and darn it, everyone likes me"............not

Maybe it's the lowered expections skit.

Okay,okay, but at least he *IS* a damn fine looking horse! I'm ready to adopt him whenever they decide he's done enough. He'll make a fancy hunter or a fine looking trail horse.

Maybe Steve should have asked John Campbell the other night if The Monkey has a future as a trotter. I would go to Freehold to watch him race.
