Some drunken idiot with Bejarano

Many thanks for the pics. Especially for me, Mister Marti Gras. I really like him. I watched him in a race months ago and he didn't get the best of rides. That's putting it nicely. I put him in my watch. I caught him at Indiana and he was 20-1'ish and he won a nice race. I had him yesterday, 19-1 behind Hops and hit the super.

This horse taught me the value of watching races carefully for the purpose of jotting down names when appropriate to add to my watches.

Your pic is now my 'puter shot.

Thanks again.

You would really like it- it's a great place and obviously the DT contingent that hangs there is a lot of fun.

SBL- nice pics. You didn't happen to snap one of my boy Colonel Klink did you?

That stinks, wish I could have seen him again at Arlington.

At least I got to feed him a peppermint at Classic Mile. Then he tried to bite my hand off.

Sorry to hear about Col. Klink. He looks like he could be a good hunter/jumper.
