NO idea the answer(s) to yours..... those are the sort of questions that I start stressing over, try to find the answers to, and end up biting off heads of those in my life, having panic attacks, and answering the phone saying "WHAT?" in frustration and, and.....

Some smart person will be able to answer, i'm sure.

Here's an easier one for us morons..... name the three who hit the board in the Santa Monica Handicap..... aka the bad girl tri. :eek:

Leave Me Alone, Behaving Badly and Miss Terrible.

Mr. Light?

I keep thinking there was an Australian horse... ran a monster race here and kinda bombed the next time..... okay now I'm talking to myself. Sorry. :D

Anyway, my guess is Mr. Light... Miss Loren's brother... track, distance, etc. unknown.

Are you talking about when Keep The Faith came to Belmont and set a new North American record for 6 1/2 on the turf?

That's him! Driving me crazy.... I kept thinking not God's Own, not Call the Lord but some faith name... thanks!

Second time that's happened, by the way. Nolan's Cat and now this? Hell, I'm just gonna ask you the next time I can't remember a name.

Whatever happened to him anyway? Any idea?

Yarmy! Steve "Yarmy" Dyble..... Rakti loved him (and, hopefully, his ex-stable mate Iffraaj). :D

Michael Jarvis once said he could hear Yarmy coming and would chill..... goodnatured boy that he was. :eek:

What year was that? I was thinking of the horse, Bettybird, in 2002 at Ellis Park in Henderson, KY. She tied the world record for 5.5 F on the turf going 1:00 & 2/5.

Bob Marley? :p

No idea..... who?

my miss storm cat 09-03-2006 05:29 PM

A Silent Witness question.....

Which horse ended his winning streak and what was the name of the race?

For extra (imaginary) points, name his gallop partner who - much to the surprise of Tony Cruz - beat him in a workout?

Note - This was pretty big news at the time.....
