![]() This is what I couldn't say two weeks ago when I posted the news to-be for BR....they've been working on a syndication deal for a few weeks now and have entertained many stud farm reps who had been flying into Ocala....
The horse has MANY small problems and always has from what I hear from VERY close sources....obviously, his nagging and primarily issues were the splint problems on both legs that are basically chronic....he's a big horse which magnified his problems when it came to the stress of training... He seems to be well-priced at $10K, although he is a little too big and his pedigree is certainly subpar - but he could really run when right..... At least he figures to get solid support from soem of Kinsman's second string mares.....hopefully, he'll make it although my forecast wouldn't be for anything spectacular.... |

![]() So ...
... the Rockport Harbor/Bellamy Road Lifetime Starts Under/Over Pool ... which began in April 2005 ... with 9.5 being the under/over for total combined lifetime starts after that date ... ... has finally concluded ... with "Under" being the decisive winner. Whew! What a nail-biting 16 months this has been! |

![]() In races of 3- 6 F. it is more difficult to prevent this travesty. At 9 F it is simply unexcuseable
I want to see a 3F race where a horse wins by 18 lengths. LOL! |

Why do you continue to throw pearls to swine? I'll save you the trouble of having to condescend to explain this to an inferior mind. I am surprised this guy hasnt seen it happen a million times with all of the 3F races that are carded around the country these days. Gander, I'll put this plainly so that even YOU can understand. When horses run 3f, often times they are whipped right out of the gate. Once that momentum gets going, very quickly the creme rises to the top. After the first furlong, if the horse isnt up by at least 10 lengths, the horse is a GOAT and should be pulling cart instead of racing. Well, when he is up by ten lengths, the jockey has got to hold the horse back. Simple as that. At 9 furlongs, you better believe the trainer is instructing them to hold back when they get up by 15 lengths. You better believe it Pal. |

... if it's a prep race early in the year. If it's a horse's farewell appearance before going to stud ... then hey, why not? In Bellamy Road's case ... it was almost BOTH ... a prep race AND a farewell appearance. Always listen to Dixie, folks ... and remember ... he doesn't really have a piece of assistant on this forum. |
