Thrilled to see he placed all things considered. Ill have to watch the replay when I get home

Congrats to Steve and all the partners along with Gary and his crew. Great debut by Lloydobler.

not exactly sure what the problem was but I was saying something else.

:o

good first time out

I don't know but I really liked how he settled and took off after 'em on the turn and then held onto place

the camera was completely unconcerned with the place money until the wire :rolleyes:

outstanding!
 

Great job !!. Thanks to everyone involved and congrats to the rest of our partners. This should be exciting

He probably turned and looked at the grandstand because the Dee Tee crowd was screaming so loudly in happiness :D :tro:

My neighbors were probably wondering too

He sat the best trip in the world behind 4 horses who went out, a few of them checked out of it, turning for home it looked like he could make a run and the chalk pulled away... He did run well, no doubt but this group was really bad, and I would not be quick to bet this horse next time out.

Thanks for the assessment.

Congrats to all involved on the 2nd place finish.

Man you suck. The race actually was quick, and he was green and still finished 2nd....A little early for cold water on this one.

No cold water at all.. He ran well, when I was looking at the race last night with another DT'er we both said this group is horrible and he might have a chance, but IMO with the trip he pulled he should have been closer to the winner... I hope he turns into a stud for these guys.

Do you promise not to?......

Lopez was trying to get him to switch leads. Stubborn little guy, he never did while in the pan shot :)

I don't think anyone is saying this horse is a world-beater :) It's a first race. The positive experience is most important, I'd say. He lucked into a good experience for a firster - sat behind, got plenty of dirt kicked in his face but wasn't bumped, pinned, intimidated, checked; then got to come out and learned he has to - and he can - pass horses.

That he got money is a bonus.

Great run! Way to go at 20-1.

Stick to your blog.

:tro:

I agree. He looked very comfortable racing.

There you have it, the great gospel has been spoken....i still hate you for helping my Eagles turn to $hit, they somehow found out you were touting them... (Pats too)


What a great, encouraging first run by Lloydobler! Congrats to those involved!

great work Gary and crew !!!

A super debut effort and result . Congrats to all .
