yeah - I guess I gave it away than with the 8 time GSW comment.

Here was the good version of FMN:

Funny how a horse wins his first Graded Stakes try at 100/1 - has the lead turning for home in the FLA Derby at 68/1 ... and when he's finally on top of his game and entered in a small ungraded stakes race ... his equipment breaks as the 1/2 favorite.

Excuse the obvious low blow.

Name the soundly beaten 4th place finisher who exited DJ Cat's Swale win to take a share of the Gotham next out when dead heating with Lure.

Devil His Due, and I don't know what you are talking about.

The Indomitable DrugS · #26 06-29-2010, 11:52 PM

Correct. And I don't know what I'm talking about either.

Who is the last, and probably only Godolphin owned horse that Ben Perkins Sr was listed as the race day trainer for?

Frisk Me Now in the Swale is the answer to another trivia question... why they have caps on horses in (most) contests.

I have no idea. Confide? Forest Wildcat? Conveyer? Meadow Monster?

The Indomitable DrugS · #30 06-30-2010, 12:11 AM

12 defeats in a row - including 8 as the post time favorite - after wearing a blanket of roses.

Name him.

I was a fan of his. I would always swear to pops and gramps that he was going to get there the next time. Gramps bet him so many times that he started calling him "Strike The Sh!t"

It was a little earlier.. 1994, they purchased him after he won the Boojum over Birdonthewire, Harlan, Lite The Fuse etc..

He had won five in a row going into the Breeders Cup.. ended up being the fourth betting choice in the sprint..

Kind of ironic that his next win was the Pimlico Special given his effort in the Preakness the year before and the track's tendency to go against his one-run style.

Fly So Free running second made it an ultimate comeback race of sorts. Didn't last long though.

I had to look it up. I didn't even remember Meritocrat was a New Farm horse.

The Indomitable DrugS · #37 06-30-2010, 12:40 AM

Won the final 6 firm turf races of his career ...

Name him.

Yep. Was 7 lengths clear of 3rd place in the soggy Breeders Cup Mile.

I'm going to have to start posting forms of greyhounds to get something by you and Rollo.

I was there when that Team Valor horse ran him down at huge odds in the Kelso.. Belmont got an enormous amount of rain that fall..
