Its about time.
Tim, I was awake at about 2:30 this morning, so I decided to log onto calracing and watch his races from this year. I really gained a whole new respect for him last night. He just kept turning back all challengers and winning by wide margins. You know how much I love horses with big hearts like that and he clearly has a very big heart. I was just curious as to what everyone thought about his last race. I figure to get a wide variety of answers. He did look like a different horse in his last, where he stumbled. I am just curious if he is beatable at a short price.

This is exactly why I love this horse, he probably wasn't at his best for this race, yet in spite of it he still won, on pure guts, no folding from this boy ever, he is a trier no matter what the situation.
