Most are from the BC.

Volponi.. even more than Arcangues. Didn't have but loved the horse..

Itsallgreektome.. Had him back-wheeled for monster exacta..

2000 at Churchill was nuts.. A huge day.. The best in fact..

Spain.. 53-1? Missed her..

28 min. later: Caressing.. 42-1? Had her $10 ATB. Me to BBQ Bill at CD, "Look at this Thunder Gulch filly that's 40-1.. Bill to me, "That's us!"

30 min. later: Northeast Bound.. 40-1? Bet him $10 ATB as Bill was pals with Bill Perry..

An hour later: Honest Lady.. 30-1? Had her under Kona Gold with Bet on Sunshine, More Than Ready and Came Home (maybe ?).. Only bet the triple though and it was a humdinger.. Would have had the Super had I bet it..

Oh.. And the 39-1 shot, exacta and triple in the Meadowlands 8th I gave out on the air three hours ago.. Didn't bet it, but Hooves and JJ's son did!
