Anthony operating under "Shortleaf Stables" these days. Has been buying some. Tim Ice training for them.

The Loblolly name has been gone for a long ass time.

I thought their names were corny sounding - Prairie Bayou, Pine Bluff, Lost Mountain etc .... why not just name the horses after strip clubs in Arkansas?

Yeah, but I mean what happened to them? They were really good for awhile and then suddenly, they seemed to fall off the map with having good runners.

Was a big fan of the sire of Garthorn.

In fact, Believe It sired what might have been the single most spectacular talent I've seen.

Indian Charlie 11-09-2010 12:25 PM

Speaking of Garthorn winning in NY, what ever happened to those owners?

Don't go there. He might have been the best horse JM ever owned.
