They are flying down in a private jet, leaving at 6.30 after the va derby and are flying straight to canterbury as they have the odds on fav in the claiming crown. then flying home. they are clearly the hottest partnership out there. There website shows purses over 1m dollars already putting among the top 15 earners in the country going into a big weekend for them. I have bought one horse with them...holly time and he won in his first start for me a will run aug. 6 at the spa.....jeff

Too bad he didn't even make enough money to pay for the fuel in their jet.

SU passes on the 1m to run in the 4ook. let me guess, that makes sense because it is a grade one or he expects a blizzard in chicago. Usually a cool place in august. Sounds like a bunch of crap to me..
Who is looking like the smart one now mp3? Dutrow of Tagg? In all fairness to Dutrow I see why he took his shot (although after his last race it was clear he should have had time off after those early fractions), and while Tagg is a great trainer, it was really the horse he let him know he wasn't ready to run. Tagg didn't push him though, and that deserves a bit of credit.

Looks like I finally got one right. Too bad I didn't get to the windows yesterday.

Clearly a poorly planned flight to Dixie.

That was funny. It seems everyone got this one right except the guy who started the thread.
