I can't get over the fact that it's not 1 1/4 miles.

Is the $12 million guaranteed?

Default Trump buys in

This just in

The Don...has just paid 3 million for a start in the Pegasus 9 furlong race assured his new Russian colt is the winner


Mr President, - a colt by AP Putin - from a DJ Trump mare; is trained by the Federations Dmitry Medvedev..to be riddin by Jose Tall-fence climber

the colt was seen on boarding an intercontinental flight flown by Tex Sutton, in a special plane made by Boeing which was gotten on sale cheap after the air force one program was scraped by Trump earlier in the month.

Mr President, the AP Putin undefeated colt has raced on 3 continents and Trump has promised his victory , no matter what it costs..Komrad.

if memory serves me, it was the last furlong, the 10th , in which the grey got to Chrome. and as baffert says, the grey one is a big lanky colt well horse now, that needs all 10 to get all played out in full stretch.

which leads me to another ramble, a quarter year has past, a new season, both are older... 6 to 4...

will the final 220 yards shorter mean that Chrome is gonna win the big money to sum an enormous bank role

my monies on Mr President the AP Putin colt

Can someone translate any or all of the last 2 posts for me? I can understand about as much of it as a conversation with the Hamburglar.

maybe you should try to get a higher education, or perhaps learn english as a second language

The ***** hat is obviously restricting oxygen to his pea brain.

At least we'll have concern for the working man and "edgy" comedy again after the cowards were silent for 8 years.

Now all of a sudden they care about people outside of Panem.

I thought the post about the horse mr president was as about as funny as one could get, it linked racing, with current politics and the latest gossip , which is by the way americas number one industry, gossip..i really expected more positive thoughts on the humor..oh well maybe i'll wallow in the sour grapes of defeat like all the demoncraps

Tough to know who's prepared to go 10f in January.

More importantly will Breeder differ standing a new stallion for 2/3 weeks for 1 season to participate. Example will a AP or Nyquist stay in training to compete, surely trainers will adjust training schedules etc. to have a shot at a 600k pay day.

The issue could lend itself into less 3 year olds retiring if healthy. With 2 6 million dollar pay days lurking over 90 days its going to be hard to retire many 3 year olds UNLESS they have exceptional pages, records, and demand
