I wonder what they'd put for a headline if a certain closer wins. Underneath it would have to read something on the lines of "'horse for course' Giacomo ends career with perfect record - at Churchill." The world will laugh if Gomez got PD to the wire, but everyone will think the apocolypse is near if this case of de ja vu taps the bank.

And I assume the following horses are on the shelf and won't be running:
Buzzards Bay, Deputy Glitters, Sharp Humor, Jazil, Steppenwolfer.

It would be great to have Wilko run. Just to hear some people claim he's still a great horse capable of winning.

left Ellis' barn.

I have no idea what they did with him.

Don't Get Mad was retired to stud at his breeder's farm.
