Sharp Humor back today!
 
Sharp Humor is running in the 6-furlong Hudson Hdcp at Belmont today. Nice to see him back!

Don't remember seeing this in another thread and only just read it myself in Bloodstock Journal.

GREAT NEWS!!! Thanks for posting!!! Time for me to load up if I get a good price!!!!! I've been waiting for this!

I bet he goes off at 4-5 and gets beaten. He must need a race. I think the Donn Handicap or something like that would be the big race his is looking at. He ran a good one at Gulfstream last winter.

oh man, sorry about your avatar. i'm living in ann arbor, and having just moved here from chicago couldn't care less about the tigers -- but i do feel really bad for all my coworkers because they're all excited and they're in for a huge letdown.

I'll get back to you after the Tigs win in 5!

ha! not that i care too much either way because it's the cardinals -- and i have better things to worry about like the bears...but i just feel like this whole region is getting really inflated over this and it's going to kill the city if they lose.

You were so right; he was beaten, but not by much. His first time against sharp older horses, off of the layoff, very respectable.

The bears??? The bears??? I feel bad for you! What a pathetic offense, can you say "FRAUDS". That's what the Bears are, they almost lost to a fricken 1-4 team, that is pathetic. The Bears will make the playoffs, and get burnt bad by a WR like Steve Smith just like last year. Don't get your hopes up too much on the highly overhyped and overrated fraud bears!

IrishofNDMan 10-21-2006 02:44 PM

and by the way, I hope you don't think you have a career in music, cause listening to your stuff on the myspace link hurt my ears, it's pretty damn bad!!!!

nah man, you've obviously missed every other game they've played.

they were pretty terrible last monday, that's agreed and they're lucky to be unbeaten right now -- but they've absolutely dominated every other game defensively and made them essentially non-issues.

we'll reconvene after the world series and discuss your side losing the big one, then we'll have to chat again after the bears win the super bowl. it will be fun

it's old, i don't think it's very good anymore either -- they're the only songs i've got recorded right now though because i was finishing college and moving around.

whether you like it or not is okay with me -- i don't generally reach out to horse racing fans to like my music so it's not an issue -- i've got a perfectly huge mailing list of people who still think i'm great.

thanks for the input though, i'm never one to run from criticism.

I agree, Ann. I look for more next time out.

Sharp Humor's return.......
 
Great looking 2nd in the Hudson, ran a strong race just got nipped by Gold and Roses. Al in all a good performance, should be even better next time out, I agree with that.

You can just hear all the Barbaro cheerleaders praying that this horse does something in the handicap division..

I can't complain, I had the exacta a few times. I have done suprisingly well today for NY bred fields. Now if I can get Nooch home here with West Virginia or FC below, I would be ectastic.

SH did look good though. I think he will do better as he stretches out.

hoping for all the best for barbaro in the weeks, months, and dare i say, years to come.
couldn't care less about sharp humor. barbaro is assured a place in history, he'll always be a derby winner...and i think fields in the next few years will have a hard time stacking up against the one he blew away in the spring.

Sharp Humor's return definitely impressed me, even more so than Sweetnorthern Saint's return. Sharp Humor looks as if he has gotten over his injury just fine. He never missed a beat today and was gallant in defeat. He will definitely aprove off of this start, and I look to see him back to his A game here shortly.

I'm skeptical about Sweetnorthernsaint. I know that he needed a race, but his gallop just didn't look as good as it used to to me. Of course, I have never been a huge fan of his gallop because he is a very stilty moving horse, but he is very fast. I hope I am wrong (definitely WOULD NOT be the first time), and that he doesn't validate my predictions because he is a very good horse, and I would love to see some great things from him in the future. Sweetnorthernsaint broke very badly in that race though, and was still much the best.

did you enjoy last night there my man?

my roommate and my glass of whiskey and i sure did!

i'm going to a halloween party tonight -- i've decided to wear a st. louis cardinals t-shirt and go as "a winner." I'm in Ann Arbor, so at least I can be sure that I'll be the only person around here who knows what that feels like!

tough break man, tough ****ing break. maybe 20 years from now, when you get another crack, eh?
