You agree with all of that, Freddy? Despite the fact that he said something 100% factually incorrect, you agree with it?

He ran Havre de Grace against the boys three years after Eight Belles ran in the KY Derby.

Those damn facts. Always getting in the way.

I enjoy most of your postings sometimes your real deep cuts are hilarious to those that get them. Even those where I am the target. The Sky Low Low reference nearly had me spitting coffee out my nose. That leads me to ask. Is your Songbird love Kafabe?

I missed Havre de Grace who also would have trounced Songbird or shall I say Lady Songbird... Lady Songbird because her future spouse whomever Mandy Pope chooses (will assume tapit) Is Sir Tapit

I think lady songbird gets sold, instead of automatically going to sir tapit. Didn't porter sell that brutish of a mare, Havre de Grace?

Gosh Freddy, she has a 3yo that's made a couple starts (2/0-0-1) and a 2yo that hasn't started yet. How 'fruitful' would anyone expect the acquisition to be at this juncture?

Perhaps it escapes you that she has attempted to sell both I believe. Remember the "ReserveGate" ?

So what? As Sikura explained after Preakness, Quick Temper dropped 4-5 before she got Cloud Computing. If you acquire boutique mares, you're making a long term play.
