What about Mayan King?

Are you ditching him?

Well I was the first to fart at Holy Communion and admit it.
So two birds with one stone, I skipped Confession.

btw, who were you on the other board (sorry if it wasn't ESPN)
you don't sound like the Brooklyn Tracker
who I was hoping would make an appearance here
Who was I?

Hey ... I was ... am ... and always will be ... Bold Brooklynite.

I'm not one of these linguini-spined candyazzes ... who hides behind a different name of each forum.

I'm here ... and I'm in your face ... so just get used to it.

If anyone publicly made such a statement before then ... please present your evidence ... and if it's valid ... I will yield my proprietorship.

I'm not sure how well he'll run in the Jim Dandy ... I don't like "spaced" races and "fresh" horses ... but I do have faith in Tom Albertrani ... who is another bold Brooklynite.

So ... hands off Bernardini ... he's mine unless you can prove otherwise.
Thats funny because Steve Haskin and I were arguing about the same thing Derby week when Bernardini waltzed in the Withers....we both knew he would win the Preakness or be a game second to Barbaro if Barbaro fired his best shot.....I have thought this colt was the goods since his maiden win and the Withers only reaffirmed it because I KNEW with his pedigree and stride that he would be better aroud two turns....I put my money where my mouth was and was rewarded with a $14,000+ payday in the Preakness after hitting all exotics across the board....Congrats on your early find, Brooklyn - but I must break it to you that you weren't the only one on board at a VERY early stage....I LOVE this horse...perhaps more than any other horse I have ever seen or followed....

Funny how everyone loves a winner, eh? I mean come on how much does claiming him to be a good horse pay? That's what I thought.

And here I thought I was a genius just for thinking he was a lock to win. Wish I would have put more money where my mouth was.

Congrats on the score.

Buzz Aldrin was on the moon at a "VERY early stage" ... but the only one still remembered is Neil Armstrong.

Sorry, "Buzz" ... but I beat you down the ladder.

100 years from now ... when they cast that big bronze statue ... it'll look like me ... not you.

Maybe some of you should be pin hookers or blood stock agents. I mean why not cash in on your new found talents.

I can only spot them after they've raced ...

... I have an amazing ability to sort the wheat from the chaff ...

... but by then it's too late.

Bold you're nothing but an immature little whiney baby
who does a disservice to the actual "Bold" people of Brooklyn
The Arabs have the horse, you didn't
and now you can't get a decent price betting on him
and I bet your swedish fish sucked too!

I go on public record with my predictions ... very early on in a horse's career. Do you ever do that?

And don't worry about me and my money ... I retired when I was 59. Will you be able to do that?

He was very reasonable in our Smuggler discussion, so I believe him...

It says nothing about how you financially benefitted by knowing Bernardini was the goods early on...says nothing about you capitalizing on 12-1 in the Preakness or any other races.....???????

How the H*LL can you say you have dibs on a horse. That's what the window is about not with us. I think it's absolutely self absorbing to say you pick a horse over others on this site. What about if someone thought the same thing a week before you. On, I know where's the proof? Right?

Well I want to say I have dibs on all the best looking women on the planet. There, I'm first and all you have to send me pictures of all the great looking woman you see and there all mine, ALL MINE!

Get a life. We all play this game for the love of horses and yes, we all like to pick winners. But you have one heck of a tude to claim a horse you don't own, train, ride, or even shovel the turds for. Hey your retires so buy him with all the money you have.
