Scuds, why you gotta bust his balls when **** like this happens? Alot of money got pissed away today because of a stupid f'n tractor.

Unbelievable. I had to get the school library to comment. Just sickening.

Not only leading, she was PULLING away, the only horse that was any danger was who I think was the 11 shooting up the rail, green silks, with the short stretch she holds.

I am a big believer that a bunch of hilarious **** happens as a test of testicular fortitude, this will all pay off when Chuck and Bob have a couple of stake winners in the barn....

They used to use Clydesdales to move the gate when I first went to Oaklawn. Maybe they need to go back to that. Much more reliable than these new fangled thangs!! Gas is 319.9 in Hot Springs and 389.9 for diesel. Just out of curiosity, how much cheaper is it?
