I have commented on this on another board.

Our Memento was possibly the SOREST (not sure if a word) on-track. Horse wanted no part of running, Trainer is full of crap saying he was completely healthy. Claimed for like 15k and then dropped 8 months later for 7500 then 4k...um no

Now for Big Attlet, horse had a bowed tendon and is probably the worst conformed horse ever to make the race track. Christine Janks, who was the orginal trainer of the horse said before his first start that she was surprised that he even got to the races. Big Attlet breaking down, especially under Tomillo's care, didn't surprise anyone that follows Arlington, like I do.

Tomillo has ruined Lord of the Game by running him like 13 times in 4 months or something like that. He had Talknow who he claimed for 4k and turned into a multi stakes winner, possibly even a graded winner, but ran him into the ground also.

I heard Tommy Two Ton tripped and fell into Talknow, injuring him badly. I got my sources still.

Talknow was years ago, probably 1998 or 1999, Tomillo needs to retire though, he lost his legs to diabetes and just not in good health
