Thanks !

Only 7 years, Betsy! Welcome back..

I adore his dam Hollywood Story (whom Shirreffs trained as well).

He's a serious colt and we'll get an early read Saturday when he faces off against Thousand Words in the Los Al Futurity.

My god, has it been that long? Wow....I’m not sure why it’s been so long, especially as there’s a dearth of racing forums out there. Well, it’s the best time of year because now the babies we’ve latched onto get to show their stuff and we’ll see if they develop into stars.

I’ll be interested to see what his running style in the Futurity is. He closed in his debut, but won on the lead in his maiden. I suspect that’s because Mike Smith didn’t want to fool around on the best horse. I’m excited about the race!
