It must have been the arm muscles you were making that gave you away.

This is so true.




I await the next eye popper from HH10 with great anticipation.

Let's watch.

Should be fun.

Look at last years 3yo champion Summer Bird. He was 4th in a 6f MSW race at Oaklawn March 1st.

His 2nd career start didn't come till March 19th - when he broke his maiden. From there he ran in what would now be 7 straight Grade 1 Stakes race.

3rd career start in Arkansas Derby, Kentucky Derby, Belmont, Haskell, Travers, Jockey Club Gold Cup, Breeders Cup Classic.
Didn't Summer Bird break his leg?
