Really? Gotta finish the rest of the interview. I started having looping issues so I decided I'd listen to it straight through in the archives later. How often is that term thrown around with fillies and mares? I've heard it being used in reference to Ruffian, with of course the infamous quote by, I believe, Moody Jolley post-breakdown. Hopefully I got that attribution right. Is it just the tough ones? Any filly?

I think the vacation started at the 16th pole in the Derby, and boy am I glad it did - cause I didn't use Paddy O'Prado second...

It's silly to insinuate he didn't ride Paddy O'Prado out to the wire. It's simply not true.

That was awesome. Kent must have had a couple too many "Red Stripe" beers...

It is totally acceptable with Kent on vacation that he might have a few cocktails. However, it sounds like he is drowning his sorrows from this past weekend. It was embarassing. But entertaining.

Good to know...thanks for the heads up.

Haven't been to Bermuda yet (sorry Steve), but have had Red Stripe in Jamaica and Kalik in the Bahamas.

Andy - I agree with what you say here quite often...but that goggles pull and the "whoa, someone-is-coming-on-the-outside head turn" give me a different impression. In the end, I'm just glad it helped my tickets instead of hurting them.

He couldn't remember the name Bill Mott. Now that's pickled!
