This BS thread is getting worse post by post. I'd be very surprised if anyone buys this horse for his welfare. MAYBE for the PR value attached to it but that is remote at best.
I claimed Kilmoray for $10,000. Ran him down to $3500 and then Allen bought him for $4500 (he didn't claim from me) and turned him out. I'm pretty sure he was 11. This is the only such story I know of after being involved with 100's of horses "hands on" one way or another. Won 5 races with A Deck when he was about 8 years old. Baitman won stakes @ 8 and Bobby and I helped him back to the barn @ Monmouth when he finally went. Sent him back to his breeders for pension. Got a nice letter saying he was happy and liked peppermints. Never knew horses bothered with peppermints before that. Always thought sugar and carrots were just fine. Anyone wants they can look up what Hirsch did with Joe Jones and Paper Tiger. There's a zillion others but I'm not going to waste my time. This kind of garbage is the down side of these forums. Readers sometimes believe that the clowns with the most posts are NOT the most ignorant members when it comes to racing. In reality, more often than not, they are. Note to Bethani: Horse's that get by the vet DO NOT FLOUNDER. As a matter of fact these claimers will probably be within 2 - 3 seconds of stake horse going the same distance the same day. Take the colors off and I guarantee you not one of these morons that is now moaning would know if he was watching a stake horse or a $5000, 6 year old claimer.

Where did Dixie's idiotic first post from this thread go Kasept? Of course it doesn't matter much, as he trumped it with the second one. I guess he'll delete it soon, which makes this place a little strange.

He deleted it; an option we allow everyone but don't have to... For the most part, it's an option that people utilize with noble intent; erasing things they wish they hadn't said. Curiously, Dixie has erased nearly everything he has ever posted...

Dixie,
Excuse us for being insufficient human beings. I guess if we had more people like you in the world us low lifes would be able to learn "the way" that you so nicely communicate to us better. It's just a shame there are so many people like us the cloud the real truth that you seem to have a strangle hold over. It's refreshing to hear from someone like you that has such keen insight into such matters and so boldly has no drothers to show what an a** hole that they are.

Perhaps you meant founder? Then again, you did after all invent the "Friday Fish Fry" concept, so we all know you're correct in any event. Of course, you also sued that rat Howard Johnson for stealing the concept. Against your better instincts, you took the setttlement offered as you were busy helping Eisenhower and Montgomery with strategy at the time.

What you posted above is PR BS. Again, I will give you a pass as I do not know if you have ever been involved with a day to day racing operation. Anyway, that's your last pass

not to mention the anger and problems scratching as many should be scratched causes. Trainers screaming, track has to pay consos, bettors angry, etc. I have never been mad about a late scratch in my life, because if my horse can't even warm up not being lame, then he sure as hell wasn't gonna win. By the way if someone is indeed saving Shake You Down, you have my utmost respect and well wishes.

But if you watch some of them warming up you can see how sore they are. I see it every day, and most are allowed to enter the gate. Standing in a stall in the morning, even being jogged a little doesnt always reveal how sore they are. You watch em trying warm up on a given day and you can see the limpers at times who have no business being on teh track.

Dixie all you have to do is watch and see if hes scratched from his next start, and I believe 100% that something is being done.
There are a few retirement foundations and I'm sure they would act to give a millionaire like Shake a nice home.

Kinda wonder why this has to be "top secret". Time for a credibility check. I doubt if it were to occur that it would have a deep seeded impact on the game. Last edited by Dixie Porter : 12-23-2006 at 09:53 AM.

And those that are involving themselves in this don't care for the attention it would generate.
