This is your 4th HOY this year so far and its only July 5th.

haaaaaaaaaa lmfao

Last time I checked Flower Alley won the grade one Travers at a mile and a quarter. The fact that he has had one start this year at a mile is about as inconsequential as anything I can imagine snce he has already established that going 10f is no problem.
And yeah it was Brass hat not too long ago that you proclaimed HOY. Whose the next candidate?

deledted three

keep yappin clown...how do you still post here after all the insults to the people who run this board.....pond scum...your knowlage is so weak..go away ..fill the other board with your crap chester..

Actually Block, you do love the game, which outweighs your weak points. Knowledge can be gained but only by listening and opening up your mind to the possibility that others may know more than you about a specific area.
How about just apologizing to our host and the others you may have offended and trying a clean start, which would be about the 7th attempt at that, but being an optimist I like to hope that one day you might put it all together and be a productive poster.

If the weather cooperates, the CD strip could be as speed-kindly as it was over the weekend. Not speed favoring, just kinder to speed types than it is when it is deep and holding.

Actually, it is just as likely that the layout of the Belmont strip bothered Lava Man as anything else. The quarter-turn, straight, long turn, straight for 10f at Belmont is quite different from the straight-turn-straight-turn-straight at SA, Dmr,Hol, or CD. Calls for different types of effort at different times in the race.

In Spanish-spreaking South America generally, the Triple Crown consists of the Polla de Potrillos (1600m, c8f), the Gran Premio Jockey Club (2000m,c10f) and the Gran Premio Nacional (2400m,12f), the last of which is considered that country's Derby. At the Maronas (there is a tilde over the n) track in Uruguay, these are all run on dirt.

see ya .....

this is may last post part 2..lol

Its simple why you post here, elementary in fact. You love the sport and you love talking about it. You tried reinventing the ESPN board but after a couple of weeks of talking to yourself and some trolls you figured out that in order to talk about horses that someone has to talk back with an iq above 40, something that board now clearly lacks. Just your leaving there will drop the average iq by 5 points.
Noone is out to get you, you simply need to learn when to say I goofed or I am sorry, a skill that most people are either taught as children or learn say, when they are a financial advisor and the tech wreck and market crash of 2000 comes along and continues for a while and 90% of the clients in your book are calling daily asking how the hell their kids are gonna go to college when the mutual fund that their educational IRA is in is down say 40%. At that point you learn to say I'm sorry about 1000 times a week and after a year or so you turn saying I'm sorry into an art form(even when its really not your fault). Probably the greatest life experience I ever had. If that doesnt teach you humility than nothing will.

lol. looks like Blocky has taken his, well, blocks and left the room.

O/U on his return and next last post ... 12:55pm (eastern). I would not take the over.

gimme 5 on the under

It wasnt Bill Clintons fault

Well ... he can't have Mayan King ...

... 'cause I've already got him.

Mayan King and $2 will get you a bagel with a smear of cream cheese. Little else.

Getting back to the original topic ...

I've always liked the fact that Candy Stripes is helping to keep the Red God branch of the Nasrullah line going. Let's wish Invasor a successful stud career.

Wouldn't want Nasrullah to just be narrowed down to Bold Ruler ... he's much too important to thoroughbred breeding history not to have his own thriving line.

I'll bet I can get a cup of Sanka thrown in.

There's a nice stallion over in the UK that is very similarly bred to Candy Stripes (Groom Dancer.) He seems to be doing well over there.

Also, to judge how well Invasor will do as a stallion, keep an eye peeled for Leroidesanimaux. He's standing at Stonewall.

There seems to be quite a few decent stallions (Orientate included) that will help keep the Red God line going.

I forgot about Orientate ... his speed should serve him well as a stallion.

Are the Nashua and Never Bend branches completely gone now?

asdfghjkl;'

So Ann, is the TC being mentioned run in three different countries or is it just the Uruguayan TC?

ñ = tilde over the n.

I am trying to figure out the editing part of this forum so bear with me. The first attempt ended up being a new post.

There are a few left...

There seems to be more of that line available in Europe.

Never Bend sired Mill Reef, sire of Shirley Heights, sire of Darshaan, sire of Mark of Esteem, sire of Sir Percy, recent winner of the Derby S. Never Bend is alive and well across the pond.

Nashua sired Good Manners, who had several important sire sons in Argentina; the recently deceased Paseana was sired by Ahmad, a son of Good Manners. Another son was leading Chilean sire Mocito Guapo, who has a couple of sons at stud in California - Malek and Memo, whose daughter Memorette won the Vanity last weekend.

Invasor's Triple Crown was the Uruguayan series for his age group.

I was just pointing out that the races of the Argentine Triple Crown have the same names as the Uruguayan races (the Argentines were the first major racing country in Spanish-speaking South America), and the triples in Peru, Colombia, and a few others include races with the same names.

LMFAO. Blocky comes back. Offers two threads. Some disagree. He refuses to listen and continues to make a fool of himself. Deletes everything he said (why?). He takes his ball and runs back to ESPN. Repeat in 6 days, 11 hours, 12 minutes.
