I bet Farmonthefreeway when he broke his maiden....think he paid around 7-2. It was at Saratoga......Richie O'Connell trained and, believe it or not, Diane Nelson rode.

When she won the Prioress a couple years ago the race should have immediately lost it's Grade 1 status...

I remember Lukas getting Farm's half brother, Sudden Impact, the owners paid somewhere near a million for him.... If they ran $5 claimers he would have been in over his head.

Remind me to nail your hands to the table the next time you want to bet Diane Nelson....She challenged Shane Laviolette for incompetence(?)

I almost never bet her ( Farmonthefreeway was 20 years ago ). She is a very bad rider. In fact, " Diane-off " has been a very profitable angle over the last few years.

I remember Farmonthefreeway. The horse had tons of early speed and I believe loved the Aqu Inner. Taking this further I seem to remember the horse being a chestnut and racing in green silks, but I could be very wrong. I was a recreational drug user in the 90's

It is like the Laviolette off angle.....I am going to look at Diane off angle now, add it to the toolbox
