Yea,and then the Baffert horse died of a heart attack. I told people that's sometimes what happens to horses that beat me. The board was in an uproar over it.

It's a 7F Stake for NY Breds. I am a little confused as to how it conjured up so much venom.

For me,it's because that bitch Friendly Island backed up about 2 f into the race, and for the other board members it was because the winner died of a heart attack. I told them that happens quite a bit to horses who beat me in big spots. They didn't like that, and then about 2 months later it happened again. They didn't like that at all.

So therefore the Mike Lee is a detestable race?

I don't get it.

Yes, I don't like the race. It's no doubt a yearly get together of highly inconsistent young New York breds going 7f. Well,watch the race. Did Friendly Island ever run that poorly again? To me it's marred forever. I told you the winner died about a week later. It's just my least favorite race. I'm sure everybody has one.

Friendly Island ran a similar race later in the year in the Fall Highweight. The Mike Lee was his second career start and he dueled in a blistering pace.

Maybe I'm just odd, but I don't hate specific races. Lorenzoni beat Easy Goer by a nose in Easy Goer's debut. Less than 18 months later Lorenzoni was running in bottom level 14K claimers in NY. Should I hate MSWs because of that?

I actually made a big bet on the horse that was second in that Mike Lee. I've gotten over it and don't have a particular feeling about the Mike Lee as a result.
