Mike this is a guess but I think it's when they lost the pic 6 while he was at Saratoga this summer.

Was that the Zito horse I had the word on who beat Abreu's horse at the wire?
I felt real bad for those guys. I was like a poison pill to that group on their narrow losses. I felt like a black cat to them. They lost that pik-6 by a nose and I tapped out on Debbie(the nose winner), I loved Prideland in the last race one day when they had 4 horses going in the pik-6 and they didn't have him. And one day Ateam had like 6 horses going in nice DD's and he got off of work right before the last race went off and came down to the main BBQ stand and he told me who he had and I said "dude, there is a strong outside closing bias today and you have all the speed". He took a horrendous beat when Crayda(I think it was Crayda) got run down at the wire by an outside closer. It was tough to watch all their tough beats and mine as well.
I think between me, Hooves, Ateam, Billinct and Steve we managed between all of us to take every tough beat at the place for 6 weeks. If there was a close photo, one of us had the loser, if there was a horrendous ride, one of has had the horse who had the horrendous ride(see Milwaukee's first race up there and Vig on the first or 2nd Saturday) one of us needed the horse with the horrendous ride. It wasn't pretty.

To me Bethani I think it was the Derby photo between Cavonnier and Grindstone.
The clues are that it says CD, that its so narrow, that the screen says the next race is race 11(Derby is usually race 10) and the rider on the outside is whipping left handed like only a natural southpaw like Bailey can do with a full whack.

Hmm, I guess that would have to be it if its not the Derby of Cavonnier and Grindstone. I guessed it was a big race, and those would be the only two biggies down there that spring to mind that were so close that people really didn't know who won until they posted the result on the tote board. Good job Stud.

Dude you are talking to a guy who lost 12 grand because Johnny V decided to give his worst ride in memory to Vig and get beat a head.
That was a BRUTAL meet.
