You know what though Phil, a place like Toga will remember stuff like that and cut him in half, maybe even less, especially if there are others that want to come. My guess is that they weren't too happy about those 8 starts.
People that are hilarious always get bite in the ass, sometimes it just takes longer then expected.
Tracknet is a perfect example, unless the THG folds like a kid that just did something really wrong, Tracknet is going to look real bad come Saturday/Sunday, all next week when you can't bet Churchill Downs on TWINSPIRES.com.....
