Wow. He's gotta be like 8 or 9 now, no? I still remember when he set the inner course mile record at the Spa.

This horse was pretty damned good at one point in his career. Think he ran 2nd to Artie in the Baruch or something a few years back.

Silver Tree ran second to Artie.

He was, however, 8th in the FourStarDave in 2004.

ahh, yes I remember it well, and so close to 7th though

[jcs11204]

i think he has a shot to win friday. race is not deep at all

It's nice to see L'Oiseau d'Argent back, but I think betting him next time will be a wise move.

I knew you'd fix it if I was wrong- I should have remembered that result as those were two of my favorites from that year. Guess he didn't run as well at SAR as I had remembered.

He ran very well at Saratoga, as I mentioned earlier. Just not in a stakes.

Actually, at one point in time, I think he held a course record on the turf at Saratoga.
