One of those days I'm very happy I didnt hit the OTB!!! I saw his Clark performance a while back but was very sour on the horse after I backed him in last years Alysheba and he came up empty at Churchill. Anyone want to explain to me how this horse won. Anything in the sheets/racing form? First for new trainer, but the new trainer is only a 14% winner with first time starters. Always hoping to learn a little bit

All I know is you will not see Seek Gold in the Classic but PD will be there with Bells on and he will ROCK! He lost by a freakin' HAIR. To all you who diss, shrug, ddrop him, don't stick him in the top three, when will you learn. THIS is a race horse.

Dead last at the eighth pole.. THE EIGHTH POLE...

Best part of that win is Calvin Borel... The camera on him before it bacame official was priceless... Totally underappreciated guy that grinds it out. I think Randy Moss said it was his first Gr. I win which amazes me...

Wild.. wild.. wild..

Carryober at CD and BEL tomorrow...

Holy ****! A Continental.. and a denizen of Wertimer Hall..

Spent many a night at Alteri's 1978-82 where we'd go to watch hockey "pre-cable"... Was "voice" of Red Raider Hockey for 4 years.. Called 2 games from Sage Rink as I recall.. The oldest rink.. AND OLDEST ZAMBONI in existence. At that time, Greg Batt was the HC coach.. He was a Colgate Hockey legend. Must have been 75 then and still coaching. Was at Hamilton maybe 40 years.

Pretty funny.. From Rochchacha? I get there regularly. Doing business with Wegs.. Had tons of friends that were at 'gate from Roch. Brighton especially..
