Please . . . Please, I beg of you, do not EVER put money on this horse. Keep making your big trip assessments, it helps all the rest of us betting into the same pools you are.

Just got home from the Big A. Lloyd was teriffic, took a ton of dirt in his face but wanted to and did pass horses. No one was beating Assman today. Very professional first start for this colt who proved he belongs in this class.

A big thanks to Steve and Gary both of whom could not be more accommodating today. Lloyd came out of the race fine. Great to see the crew today and I can't wait for the next start! Also, a thanks to Michelle, look forward to the pictures from today! Congrats to my fellow owners!

I was going to say the same thing but figured he would bet him just to spite us

Just back from Big A as well. Super glad to see Lloyd translate his morning interest into a competative performance. Very excited to have a runner in NY.

Beautiful day, great crowd of partners, cashed a few tickets, time for a cocktail!

Big thanks to Gary, Steve and team.

Wing, you make an excellent point. Reverse psychology just may be the way to go here!

You do mean time for your next cocktail, right?

:) Stephen and I just left Lloydobler in the barn chowing down in his stall. Stephen wants you to know that he came out of the race very well, not tired...perky and loving the attention. (I have photos!) Lopez came away very impressed and Gary says Chucky isn't a guy who is usually overly positive. Stephen will add more of Gary's thoughts later tonight or early tomorrow....but he thinks it was an ideal first start.

It was an absolutely beautiful day at Aqueduct! It was great to see everyone excited over the debut. I'll toss up a few photos when we get home!

The DT stable story just keeps on going and getting better and better.

Congrates to all and happy for those who could make the trip. Looks like a nice horsey and looking forward to next assignment.

And he closed strong, it was a very nice effort.

Where is the picture of your 6 month old son and his Belmont bib from today?

Thank you, DB. I know a lot of us were waiting to hear how he was back at the barn. Looking forward to seeing all of the photos! Wish I could have been there.

We just home as well. Great run by Lloyd. Thanks to Steve and Gary for a great day. I got some good pics I'll put up tomorrow. It was nice to meet so many DT'ers. This was our first DT event, thoroughly enjoyed it.

TouchOfGrey 01-23-2010 08:43 PM

Sounds like you all had a great day! Congrats to DeeTee Stables and Lloydobler for an awesome first start. Can't wait to see pics.

Great day at the Big A as Lloyd gave us a fantastic debut effort. Big thanks to Steve, Gary and his staff for having our guy ready to run today. Excellent Dee Tee turn out which always makes for alot of fun at the track. Looking forward to his next start.

Sometimes you should consider putting a muzzle on yourself.

Check that... all the time.

Photos from Lloyd's Race
 
Another gorgeous day of racing for Dee Tee Stables. It was a beautiful day in NY today. It was great to meet so many people. I did not get a chance to say goodbye to everyone, I was really tired and needed to get on the road. My pictures are too big to upload individually so here is a link to them. They may be a bit out of order, especially the saddling.unsaddling pics. I will need someone to help with a list of the DTers in the group photo with Chucky. He graciously agreed to a photo then waited while I had to change lenses and, he was riding in the next race which was in 20 minutes!!!

Lloyd was very impressive in his first start. He acted like an old pro in the paddock. The folks at NYRA were quite accomodating to our motely crew, we watched the race from the winner's circle which is just about on the main track!! We were still milling about when the winner came for a photo and they gently shooed us out!!!

I was able to get a quick pic of Lloyd, Chucky and a plane overhead, but cut off Lloyd's nose - I had been hoping for that shot but when the time came I was too close and couldn't get the entire picture. I think Pmac made it to the wire first with his daughter, even if he didn't I am sure she will be nice to him and tell him he is the best ;-)

It was really great to see everyone today. Thanks for adding a fabulous vibe to the day. And of course, thanks to Steve and Gary!
