I will never forget that he and Mr Allen (owner of MTB) were conspiring to keep Rachel Alexandra out of the Preakness. Despicable and classless, as was his wussy backtrack when interviewed on TVG. "I was looking out for the filly's well being"...GROAN.

Now, every nice horse Zayat has had since then has gone down to injury; this one may die.

PioneerOf The Nile
Eskendereya
Bodemeister
Nehro (okay, maybe he's still active...who the hell knows)
and now Paynter

Karma is a bitch Ahmed
Please point out where i am taking pleasure in Paynter's illness...

is it the 'karma is a bitch' phrase?
is it the 'while i feel badly for the colt...' phrase?
is it the 'i have no such feelings regarding Zayat' phrase?
is it the 'every nice horse since has gone down to injury' phrase?

I hope folks aren't upset that i'm not upset that Zayat is worried for his colt.
You see, it's not his feelings or mindset or well being that matters to me.
AGAIN (so no one misses it)...i feel badly for the colt and i am not pleased to see him fighting for his life.
I just happen to dislike his owner...a lot. It was a low down dirty ass move he almost pulled...does anyone deny that?
When I Want Revenge got injured there were many who commented on their dislike for his connections (IEAH and Mullins) while separating that from how they felt for the horse himself.
That's all i was doing

It's easy to read something like what you posted in a thread like this and make assumptions and read stuff into it that isn't there.

I did this with your post... not publicly but in my head... and I apologize.

Poor horse... you know? I was not / am not his biggest fan or anything remotely close but I feel so bad as I know we all do so a post like yours seemed insensitive and inappropriate and I hope you can understand why it received the reaction(s) it did.

Here's hoping he ends up having a nice, long life.

It has been a great 12 hour turnaround. Please god let's keep heading in the right direction

5pm after we take his bloodwork and new vital signs as well as an ultrasound on his lungs to see if there is change from this morning.

Everything Riot has done in this thread is perfectly ok in her own little mind because her bile was put into a special and separate thread made just for me.

In her twisted universe, that makes it okay, since she thinks I started it (which clearly I did not).

It's what you'd expect from a first grade bully who has to resort to hopelessly transparent distortions to make themselves feel ok about themselves.

Her self worth is so wrapped up in being in the right all of the time, that she has become unconscious of her actions and the effect she has on other people.

I will no longer go after her. I honestly believe that she is nearly incapable of change, and what change she is capable of would be disastrous.

Being mad at such a person is futile. Feel sorry for her.

i recognized the futility months ago, which is why i availed myself of the ignore feature.
probably for the best, so i can't see her reply to me inferring she's a jackass in the 'study' thread. truly, it was beneath me, as i'm sure the study is a necessary one.
the devil made me do it.
