Could be old news to some, but sounds like he may not run if the track is slop:

That is good to hear. Sharp Humor is going to be one heck of a horse when he returns. This horse is better than most people give him credit for.

Sharp Humor is the first horse I thought of when oracle was writing in another thread about smart horses that have a huge competitive drive. I can't comment on his intelligence (Sharp Humor's, not oracle's!), but I thought Sharp Humor had as much fight as any horse of the last few years.

Where did you see that he's doing well, hooves?

Hooves - what did you hear? I'm not sure if I was one of the people who touted him much before, although I did like him (might have been someone else you're thinking of?), but I think he has serious potential to shake things up in the division when he returns, especially now that there's no clear "top" three year old (Bernardini? Can we anoint him as such yet?).

I also can't wait for my big fav to come back, hopefully with his head on a little straighter...Corinthian. Haven't heard anything about him in a long time, though.

Good, I really can't wait to see this guy and Lawyer Ron back in action. You can throw Stevie Wonderboy into that group as well.

Default Hooves...

It was me that was all over Sharp Humor before the Derby and who is a huge fan of his. It is good to hear that he is doing well and I can't wait to see him back in action!

KY, I will be bouncing off the walls when Lawyer Ron starts up again. I know you and Buffy were his biggest fans, but I've loved that guy ever since I heard his name. Any word on how he's doing after the injury?
