i asked if there was any way to see slew o'gold. shot down in flames. 'he's not on the tour' she said. dammit. and since i refuse to grovel, esp when it would be futile, i left it alone.

rahy is a HAM! poses for the camera. war chant is full of himself.

but i enjoyed claiborne more. monarchos is a big puppy. have pics of me and him, i could have petted him all day, he wouldn't have minded i don't think. but the groom on the other hand...and tony...

pulpit was very well behaved, as was arch...seeking the gold, i wouldn't want to be the one to handle that guy! but the highlight of the entire trip, danzig! so glad i got to see him.

we also went to the cemetary there, it was very touching. and i know they buried danzig there this winter. the groom said that when they lost devil's bag that at first when everyone found out a horse was down, they all thought it was danzig. thank goodness it wasn't.

so much history there...easy goer, secretariat, mr p all still have their nameplates on the stalls they were in...eddington wasn't there yet, but he's going to his old mans stall.
wonder where first samurai will be? maybe in danzigs old place, since they're related...a bit distantly, but still.

it's so nice that they stall a horse where a family member once was.

Danzig,

I am sooo jealous! Just a month ago I was telling my husband we had to go to Ocala to visit some horse farms when the "big" guys were there. I haven't looked into it yet. My mom lives up there and is going to look into try and getting us some tours if possible.

Thanks for sharing your stories of visiting the farms. I enjoy hearing them.

Thank you for telling me about it... I'm so glad Monarchos was nice. One of our clients is his breeder and he really helped put Two Bucks Farm on the map for them. I hope I can visit Claiborne one day as well.

Let me know when you finally get to Belmont and I'll try to come out that day, since I'm not planning on leaving NYC anytime soon.

LOVE the recap of your farm tour!

Feels like this has become a soup opera more than a horse racing/handicapping site.

Maybe we should have a separate section for tirades, personal attacks, and other such nonsense.

Personally, forgetting all that has been said in the past, it would be nice to discuss horses and wager strategies so that we can all improve our ROI's.

Amen to that...

I'll throw one out to start things out.
Nothing major as it is 3-1 morning line, but Trust Nobody in race 4 at Saratoga on Wednesday looks good second time out with Dutrow and a good hidden 11 thorograph figure which is way above any other of the starters who have run.

[Seattleallstar]

Oracle is a true blue ******* thats true, but he knows his stuff. A guy you want to have in your corner. For all of his *******ness, hes a great friend.

I "may" be able to give a little more detail on that horse later.

If you don't like Howard Stern, then don't listen to his station...or better yet,

If you don't like Bobby Knight, then don't sign up to play Indiana (now Texas Tech) Basketball...

That's my take on it.

say WHAT?! this is america, by gum, where everyone boycotts something they don't like, and suggests everyone else does the same!! i don't like it, so no one should see or hear it. why the nerve, suggesting to just change the channel! it shouldn't be on t.v./radio in the first place!!!


LOL! i feel the same way, raaally i do!

now that sounds like a plan!

tony and i have been talking about plans for next years vacation, he said something about going back to ky on the western side for fishing....but i'm sure i could find some way to persuade him to take a day and drive me east.

i'd like to go see calumet, lane's end. ok, all of them....lol
