Oh how the mighty have fallen.

Running for $15k tag in the 7th at Remington tonight. Such a shame. He deserves better, imo.

I feel like I remember you being pretty impressed with his win at The Meadowlands.

Or maybe that feeling is just a little gas.

I remember being very depressed after he won his debut, running down some Kimmel horse I pounded that was five in front at the eighth pole.

What kind of posh suite did you get at Churchill?

I hope the food was better than the 2nd floor food court.

This is a horse that really has done enough. He's got over $1.4m in the bank and his Godolphin Mile win is only 4 races back in his PP's. That was 2008!
