Default What a long, strange trip it's been (for Casino Drive)

He's finally getting ready for his comeback.

Poor horse has had how many things go wrong now?

Anyway...

He might not have been that good, but with the way that Belmont was run and Big Browns issue/issues whatver its hard to say he would not have won that race. At the time I was really thinking about unloading on him, like biggest bet of my life at the time. Its really a shame that he got injured.

Did it ever occur to you that he got hurt because you were going to unload on him?

It's on now Mother Fugger.

What was just joking around before with you is over.

I will never relent from punishing you.

I may not do it very often, but since you have broken our deal, I am going to apply a really snide and nasty streak in my posts with you.

Your jinx won't work by the way. It's obvious you don't expect that to happen and you have to be sincere in your love of a horse for something really bad to happen to it.

If he were in, he'd be in the preview...

(Not everyone is, of course, but this guy would definitely be there).

Apparently, he might be going to one in March at Hanshin...

Good Stuff Charlie

BTW lest we forget, if Casino Drive did win the Belmont what a feat for Better Than Honour.
She would have sired three back to back Belmont Stakes winners and that would have been a feat most likely never to be repeated
