Mostly the horse came unglued mentally , which is in his pedigree as his mother was a blooming idiot with tons of run . After he reared in the gate the gate hand bit his ear which I think was the beginning of the end for him mentally. He left the gate almost falling down and then was shut off and ran over because of his stupidity in the gate and not getting off well. To me , and I know the horse pretty well, by the time he got to the first turn he was so pi**ed off that he was like " screw it Im going to the 100 to 1 "
Ill bet you a beer or beverage of your choice this horse will win more stakes and you can take that statement to the bank.
I'll take you on at a line of one graded stakes victory. If he wins one more it is a push, less than one you owe me a beer, more than one and I owe you a beer.

Should I remind you of the grade one winners you declared would never win one? You are a mush in reverse on these things, and this horse just received a huge push with your statement. Never in my life have i seen anyone declare so many horses as bums who went on to win Grade ones, you have no peers in that category. Your opinion on these matters is just horrendous.

Warrior toyed with him before easily drawing off.Maybe we will see him in the HWD Futurity.Same owner as Point Ashley.The guy has some major jak.
I'm glad EZ warrior is getting back to working. I saw that race, and he looked fantastic. The fact he was off for so long, I wasn't sure if he was injured, or what.
Speaking of Baffert 2-yo, I really liked Enforcement last year before he was injured. He's been back on the worktab for awhile now, and I assume he'll run before Santa Anita ends.

Yeah,that's right(Exploit.)He said that he trained Exploit,and that Exploit was no where near as talented as this horse(E.Z. WARRIOR.)10F could be a struggle.Maybe it's just me,but it seems like most horses with Carson City involved (in the breeding) are up against it (as far as getting 10f.)

Actually, Carson City is a name I LOVE to see on the dam-side of a pedigree. He adds quality speed and versatility. His daughters are producing well when bred back to some stamina, ala Barbaro.

Well you will be happy to know that Listen Indy has a great home now, a girl that used to work for Mike Stidahm has him now , she claimed him for 5000.00 at Lone Star, she is making a jumper and eventing horse out of him and says he is doing really well . I hope that helps you with your soreness.

I dont really think he needs them , he just needs to not get so mentally wound up about shyte, you know we stood him in the gate alot before this race and even the day of the race but still he screwed up and reared but only after the horse Solis was on delayed the start because he was laying on the pontoon and they couldnt get him to standup, then the horse to the outside of him fudged up and I think that is what set him off.
His family history has a pattern of stupidness from his mothers side, I have had the unfortunate pleasure of being around a few of his siblings and they never even made it to the races because they were to dumb or crazy.
The horse will be ok, maybe its a good thing he's not going to the breeders Cup, it might make him better for the first Sat. in May all things willing.

You know the funny thing about Rolling Rock ( and its made about 50 miles from where I grew up) is that I had never tried it until about 1994 when I was in Denver . Its pretty good stuff and if I was going to drink a Pale Ale that would be my choice for sure. I Like Bass , Stella , New Castle, Spatan Optimater , Guiness of course, Boddingtons Pub Ale , and Nutty Brunette from B. J.'s brewhouse. I like color to my beer and more bang for my buck , pretty much if im gonna have to pee like a racehorse I want it to be worth it lol.

I knew you were from that area and figured for sure you would like that brew. I actually used to drink Rolling Rock and really enjoyed it.

I used to sell those things...they did better than I thought they would. Sales rep talked me into putting them in the golf shop.

I guess with the weather in Cali...those things are great.
