Default I have the Answer!!

OK, we all have opinions but here's mine. Get rid of cars and we all go back to riding horses. Saves gas and I'll trade my car for SYD. I mean why go through the trouble of making gas from corn, wheat, etc. when you can cut the food chain down to feed horse....ride. That way all these horses we're whining about can be used and enjoyed.

I can see pulling up to a restaurant and seeing The Green Monkey valet parked while the low level claimers would be left in the back row.

Yea, I'm crazy!

When this chain started, SYD was suppose to run in a 7k claimer at Charlestown I believe. I know he was scratched that night, did they run him back soon after? Has he run recently?

i read that with anticipation is now ridden to the hounds, he's a fox hunter (the fox is NOT killed, they just chase him to his hole according to the article). kelso was another who did the same thing.
no doubt someone would be proud to have shake you down-whether a casual rider, or even a police mount-there are former racers who have gone on the force.
i just think it's a shame to see him where he is, with that guy as his owner.

He last raced January 18, (I have his DRF PPs thru a March 3 workout at Laurel Park.

He has been entered at least 3 times since. One race didn't happen due to weather (and possibly a scratch too) the other times he was scratched. Scratches due to the shipping ban from MD, I believe.

The last 3 times he was entered tag was for $7500 2/15, $10,000 2/25 & $7500 3/15.
