Nothing you say has any validity to me. You've made so many statements that contradict previous ones that how could they?

When did I say I lived in Cincy? And you do know that I only live about 1.5 hours from Turfway Park. I also had two horses running at Turfway over weekend. DO you think it is possible to drive 1.5 hours to a different city and then be able to drive home that same day?

At least some of the trolls here are mean and trolls, but seem truthful.
Euro has made at least 100 contradictory statements and repeatedly denies connections to poly and Turfway, Keeneland, etc.
Yet hes been caught giving out handle numbers that we called on and were told were NOT public yet, and now hes got maintenace costs down to the percent.
Look, noone is gonna be crazy enough to try and discertain that non public info just to post it on a meesage board.
Not everything everyone says is gonna be truthful on a message board, but like to think that most folks here are telling the truth and I think most folks are, whether I agree with what they say or I don't.
But when a guy tells us he lives in different places, then hes got numbers on a place that aren't public, then hes outto dinner with three jocks, and hes calling Martin Collins "Marty" as if he knows him. Well I mean, please, spare me the bull****. Enough already.

You are funny....you always have inside information (great horse too) why is it so hard to believe that I know someone who can get this information without having any ties to it. I have no vested interest in Poly or Turfway or anything other than one 5% and one 10% in horses. That is all, plain and simple.

It's about an hour and a half from Cincy to Indy...

Not only that, but Euro said that he had Bengals Season tickets, yet he was bummed about Indy losing...

This guy is KentuckyCherub, been saying it since this board started...

Look I don't care what people so in their free time. If they wanna get dressed up in litle bo peep suits and handcuffs etc, I dont really care.
But if you wanna come and talk and misrepresent what you are, thats bogus.
I know the tickets, etc, theres a lot more.
If you have a name or postition that prevents you fromo saying who you are, just say that, don't make up phony alter egos and lie.

blackthroatedwind 12-11-2006 11:17 AM

People lie on the internet?

I am shocked and appalled.

I do have season tickets and have had them for years. But you have to remember that The Colts werent in Indy when I was a boy. The closest team was Cincy. There are tons of Cincy fans that live in Indy. However, The Colts moved in many years ago and of course I am going to cheer my home team hard. How is that so hard to believe. I guess you cant cheer for two teams. You can say what you want Point, I dont care. But I have no clue who this kycherub is and dont really care. Think what you want.

Does this proposition entail my dressing up as Little Bo Peep? It's nothing of a sexual nature, I assure you.

Ok, now how I have misrepresented myself. I was a tire salesperson that got laid off from BF Goodrich. Opened my own store, sold them and now I am trying to figure out what to do. Jesus--what else do you want.

Look, thats all fine, but I'm trying to figure out how you would have acess to figures that I tried to call and get(to test out how available they were) and they said at Turfway that they wern't for public knowledge.
Its a crock. Tell "marty" we said hello/.

Now, that's not the complete truth either. One jock told me "it was like asbestos". No, I can't tell the jock's name -- TP would ban the jock if they knew it. And last winter season when it was clotting up the jocks called a meeting about track safety. Softball sized chunks of it were flying 20 feet in the air.

I know -- I was there pal.

Stand by the rail after races and tell me horses don't have breathing issues after inhaling it.

Wait until this winter. You're in for a real treat.

How does anyone get information that is not public? They typically no someone close to the situation. That is how I know. Just because you know someone who is close to the situation doesnt mean that you have a vested interest. If you want to call caring about the well-being of a freind as vested interest, then I guess I have one because I want my friend and his company to succeed.

I was at the rail on Sunday and I had two horses run and both scoped out clean and didnt have any breathing problems. I can only go by what my horses show and what the trainer and jock states. I am not happy with the amount of kickback because I think it should be less. However, it isnt as bad as it looks on TV is all I am saying. Can it improve---YES. Should it improve---YES.

That would be a vested interest, Euro. I have no issue with you... I don't think you're Kycherub and quite frankly, I don't care if you are. It just seems to me that you are completely biased on the polytrack issue and it would be nice if you took a moment to look at the negatives as well...

Even if the success is built on misinformation and lies?

Look at Enron. How many lives were destroyed because people like you wanted "their friends" to succeed?

Frankly, if one of my friends is lying and cheating other people, that SOB is automatically no longer my friend.

And also, what was the problem with the track that held up the second race after the horse broke down in the first race? The jocks complained about it -- didn't they? It was uneven and unsafe. Wait until you get a typical January. That track won't hold up.

I have looked at the negatives and I have said that enough is enough when it comes to a synthetic surface. I believe there should be a 3rd surface. Do the negatives outweigh the positives--imo, NO. Are the negatives that people bring up a big deal NO. The kickback is no big deal, the clumping can be a minor problem. Do you want to the know the real negative of a synthetic surface that no one mentions....well here it is and this one is a HUGE deal. The surface is so forgiving that it is hard to detect a minor injury that can compound in a serious one. For example: horses with a stone bruise travel effortlessly over the surface. Get them on a dirt surface and they are in pain. To me this is the major problem with Poly. Kickback, clumps, breathing are just topics to bitch. If you want to talk the negatives then bring up a true negative--not something to bitch about.

I define "vested" as having a monetary investment. I do not have a monetary investment.

He lied like a bearskin rug all this time, until being cornered finally, today.
What a con man and what a breach of trust.
He sits here reading our stuff on it and reporting back to Marty, etc.
He advertises for it and lies about doing so, and in the end hes been exposed for what he is, which is what I proclaimed him to be over a year ago, a polytrack shill with an interest in it.
I hope everyone looks as dimly upon him now as i do. The guy has perpetuated a lie, and all the bull**** hes been spouting for two years is now exposed.

I hope everyone else realizes your only reason for being here is to spout poly, and gain info on what people are saying to "marty".
You are in the same league as the George boys.

I dont know Marty. However, that is what he goes by. You want to say I have a connecting with someone because I call them Marty instead of Martin then you are really reaching here. You are making things up Oracle. And you are the liar. I am still waiting for you to show me where I said I lived in Cincinnati. You can't and you are a liar when it comes to that. You are trying to find something that isnt there because I can refute anything negative you say about PolyTrack and make you look like a fool.

A person saying that enough is enough when it comes to Poly is spouting it--that it hilarious. I apologize, I thought you meant a monetary connection. If you have a friend that works for Hollywoood, Woodbine, Turfway, Keeneland and now Arlington then I would hope you would want your friend to keep his/her job so they can feed their family then I guess you would connection.

Actually, if I recall, Cunningham brought that issue up numerous times...

We won't know the full impact on breathing issues for a while, anyway... this is the kind of stuff that may not show an immediate reaction, but may show it later on in life. I, for one, believe that it would have been more beneficial to spend the money needed to improve on the condition of the former dirt surface, rather than the millions spent on this synthetic stuff.

Not opposed to a third surface at all, as long as it can be offered at a trackj with traditional dirt, which noone has done or will do,
Its a dirt replacement, not a third surface, because not one track has THREE surfaces, no room for them.
And the marketers are flat out liars.

I agree with you when it comes to a place like Keeneland and the Cali tracks. But for a place like Woodbine and Turfway it makes more sense to have a synthetic surface. I dont remember Cunningham posting that but thanks for letting us know.

To help you understand what that is, here is what you need to do.
Go outside after breakfast, and go and find a pond or a river or a swampy area. Pick up a rock right near the water and look underneath. If you have any questions after this, give us a shout and we can help you out with it.
Mommy and Daddy take you to Chuck E Cheese this past weekend?

Why do you think Woodbine and Turfway need polytrack as opposed to Keeneland and the Cali tracks? I'm interested in knowing your thoughts.

I dont understand, why do they need a dirt surface as well. Oaklawn and Turfway dont have a turf so why does only having one surface matter. To me it is a 3rd surface. And of course it replaced dirt at Turway etc etc-u are a genius to figure that one out. So I dont understand when you say it is a dirt replacement.
