And now I see I took the bait.


Thanks for wasting my time.....


It's not like I had anything better to do on a Friday night I guess.

This might be the first time that one of my posts hasn't turned into a battle of personal attacks between two other DTers within the first 20 replies.

Wow.....this explanation ought to be good.

His obscure sire Chayim's biggest accomplishment was being the sales topper at the '92 Barretts March 2yo sale - and winning a couple dirt sprints in southern Cal.

The dam was by the sire Alhajras (who never hit the board in two lifetime starts) and was 2-for-12 racing in the hotbed of thoroughbred stardom that is Hugo Chavez land.

His 2nd dam Inspiring was a hopeless Slew O' Gold who never ran first or second from seven tries.

I think Remarkable News' breeding is just plain soft.
