Did the horse named "UM" make yet another start?

Nah, I thought the weekend was pretty fun.

Finally hit a winner for the first time in a month of Sunday's.

How was your weekend?

Watch the 3rd from Saturday.

It's like shooting fish in a barrel at this point.

I saw the 3rd Saturday. I called it.

Only thing I can say is that was one hell of an effort by RISKY SITUATION to run that well in the 2nd. Then come right back and WIN the 3rd!

You don't often see heart, talent and versatility like that!

Clear, concise, accurate and exciting. That call had it all.

To be fair, while that was far and away your worst blunder this weekend, it wasn't your only one.

I saw even Karl Broberg called you out for all of your mistakes. And you led me to believe I was the only one. Funny stuff.

If my mistakes make you happy. That makes me happy.

It seems like the only time you're happy is when something bad happens to someone else.

What a way to live.

Only 3 days left in the meet. I'll try to be even worse next weekend.

Then you're on your own till next Dec 9th.

I love the victim stuff. You know absolutely nothing about me or what makes me happy.

On the other hand we all know you have an inflated ego and are one of, if not the most self absorbed people most of us will ever encounter. You prove this daily on twitter or whatever message board you’re pandering on that day.

You’re the one that is so self involved you thought it was a good idea to actually type out and hit submit on a post where you said you were calling better than at any point in your career. You’re the one who described your calls as clear, concise, accurate and exciting. And you’re the one that called the winner of the 3rd on Saturday the wrong name throughout the race. The fact the horse won was almost like the karma gods trying to keep you in check a little.

It could’ve been a horse who was up the track, but no…it was the winner. So great. It was a mistake any announcer could’ve made. Then again, I can’t recall another announcer so in love with themselves that they would post the dumb sh.it that you do.

So yeah…it was a hilarious moment. And it was worth mentioning. Own it.

I did own it.

Nancy and I laughed about it on the handicap show.

What did you guys think of CADDO RIVER'S win?

IMO he's about to become an important horse in the handicap division.

Thoughts?

Who is the best horse that Caddo has ever beaten? I will give Cox credit for getting this one running well again. Is he a 9/10f horse better hope so because he isn't beating a plethora of good fast horses around one turn.

He beat nothing yesterday. I was shocked when they scratched THOMAS SHELBY out of $1,000,000 race last week when he looked like controlling speed. Was a major red flag for me.

It wasn't who he beat yesterday. It was how he looked doing it.

We'll see. I think he might be getting very good.

This has been an incredibly uninspiring crop of 3YO fillies, save Echo Zulu, so it's great to see someone else come along, but a little rational perspective wouldn't hurt.

Would it be rational to say that generational is still possible?

Stop. She's a really nice horse. Let her be a really nice horse without making it all about you.

Dahoss 05-06-2022 09:25 PM

I see Vic is pandering on Twitter about the generational nonsense too.

Get some help man. Seriously.

I asked what you thought of the horse. YOU are the one that ALWAYS makes it about me.

Let's try this again. Is generational still in play?

blackthroatedwind 05-06-2022 10:15 PM

A horse wins the KY Oaks with a 94 Beyer and she's a generational talent.

Vic, stop trolling....and don't pretend you aren't.
