colorful tour went on a tear at hawthorne a few years back too!

it was great to see him back at arlington on the grass this summer -- though he wasn't winning, he was running well several times at 25-1.

he seems like he could have a nice future as an Illinois stallion, wouldn't you say?

1) You guys are nuts for thinking that horse could be a stallion...come on, I am all about unrealistic stuff, but this is borderline insanity

2) Playa, you have to tell Chiolty to stop riding Laviolette, he would win alot more. He is a good trainer from what I can tell, but his downfall is his love affair with Laviolette

lol i know ya dont care for shane scav. and while hes had a very down year and doesnt win like he used to he gave a really nice ride on that horse yesterday. on the turn/top of the lane i thought we hada shot but colorful tour although he probaly has a huge hole in him can beat those horses on class alone like he did yesterday. the lady who claimed him is iowa based so who knows what she plans on doing with CT. id like to see him retired

VERY DOWN YEAR. HE WON ONE allowance race at Arlington I think...and that is at Arlington. Seriously, he is brutal, top 5 worst jockeys, along with Taylor Hole, Ariel Smith, and Ray Ganpath

well a big reason to his decline is the loss of business with tomillo. tommy sends out more horses per year then any1 in chicago! shane used to ride the barn for him. lol ariel smith ill agree with you on i have no idea why calabrese used him some at arlington while he was here this summer. ray ganpath i cant knock, he made me quite a bit of money when jerkins would throw him on one

Tomillo sucks too, he let the owner of Lord of the Game waste all the money they won with that horse on 10k claimers, just so Tomillo would have more head in his stable. The claims that guy put in were straight up RIDICULOUS

agree he ran through the money, LOTG was the first horse that guy ever owned! in my opinion they ran LOTG into the ground running him way too often! he claimed LOTG off winstar, lol and then proceeded to claim many others off winstar who busted, he also has spent alotta money at the ILL sales the last couple years! we actually claimed jake off tomillo, lol most people around here dont have the balls to claim one of tommy's runners
