Won many races with these rejects. First and Finest, who I claimed from Harbor View, won a stake in Md. Concerned, who I bought from King Ranch for $5000, went on to win 7 more races up to starter's handicaps in NY.

Hey Boss-

Bobby called and he wants you to get on the horn with Cole and buy SYD before these no nothings get their paws on him. He says he wants you to bring him out west and have him ready for the big cap.

[quote=Dixie Porter]This BS thread is getting worse post by post. I'd be very surprised if anyone buys this horse for his welfare. MAYBE for the PR value attached to it but that is remote at best.

I claimed Kilmoray for $10,000. Ran him down to $3500 and then Allen bought him for $4500 (he didn't claim from me) and turned him out. I'm pretty sure he was 11. This is the only such story I know of after being involved with 100's of horses "hands on" one way or another.

Won 5 races with A Deck when he was about 8 years old. Baitman won stakes @ 8 and Bobby and I helped him back to the barn @ Monmouth when he finally went. Sent him back to his breeders for pension. Got a nice letter saying he was happy and liked peppermints. Never knew horses bothered with peppermints before that. Always thought sugar and carrots were just fine.

Anyone wants they can look up what Hirsch did with Joe Jones and Paper Tiger. There's a zillion others but I'm not going to waste my time.

This kind of garbage is the down side of these forums. Readers sometimes believe that the clowns with the most posts are NOT the most ignorant members when it comes to racing. In reality, more often than not, they are.

Hey Braintrust,

How's SYD doing on the farm?

:confused:

Believe me when I say that the only 'downside' of THIS Forum is regularly evident to everyone...

And finally, call the members of this Forum morons again and you can join your insane pal on the outside looking in...

I wonder how long this stays up.

Someone must have read the wrong tattoo the last few weeks.
:cool:

Why does this horse have two threads?

What farm was he retired to for his welfare?
