That's unfortunate.
We need more horses like The Tin Man. What a solid record. |

It shows how smart Mandella is, a true horseman. He knows the Tin Man doesnt have a chance in hell in the BC Turf and that they took a shot at the Million. They know that was his ceiling, very good news.

for the Tin Man to have a chance in the BC turf he would have to be 200% |

I wouldnt blame him a bit for this decision either !!!

I was going to make The Tin Man my best bet. The horse's welfare comes first. The connections are the best.

The Tin Man didnt have a chance in hell of winning the BC Turf, I like the horse and have won money on the horse. But lets face it he was never top class, won his share of important races and was very fortunate to get the trip in the Million that enabled him to win. |

He is doing what is best for the horse. Mandella doesnt lie and he isnt scared if he was he never would have beat Cigar.

Hope he gets back in form so we can enjoy watching him a little longer.

David Junior would win the Turf for fun if he were not running in the Classic. No American has beaten the Tin Man this year, so it would seem that he would have had as good a chance as any American in the race. At least that's what comparative logic says. |

we can talk all we want about how or why a horse wins a race -- but if a horse just continues to win, then no amount of talking changes that. it's that simple. getting an unchallenged lead didn't make War Emblem's win price any lower |

Seattle, buddy, stick to picking losers and chalk favorites. It seems to be all you're good at.

Seattle you get a "BE NICE". The guy is doing what is best for his horse, and you have to be a mean nasty little Beeyotch about it?
Ever heard of the saying "if you don't have something nice to say, don't say anything at all"? I know that I am being mean and I am yelling at you to be nice, but sometimes you deserve it. Mandella doesn't. He is doing right by his horse.

I really wanted him to go. He would have taken plenty of money in the win pool and had no chance of finishing 1st.

this is so freaking funny I can barely type this.
why not announce that Cambiocorsa is not running in the BC Mile? its just about as relevant. this horse is not very fast, not very sound, and not very interesting. Repent |
