Claiming Crown

Jockey Miguel Mena, proving his success at Turfway was no fluke, the kid can ride.

[The Bid]

The ride the kid gave One Eyed Joker was tragic, how that horse won I have no idea.

I have to disagree with you on Mena, he continues to put horses in bad spots, he was simply on the best horses today

[mclem10011]

He wins alot of races, because he does get live mounts I can agree with you there Bid.

why do they run this right now when it competes with too many other big events?

Damn I was 111 under on the attendance. Didn't look like a big crowd. The handle is solid...Geary brought in a whale or two I believe.

Canterbury gets at least 10,000 for the event every year.

I hope it comes back where it belongs. It wasn't bad at Ellis, but it needs to come back here.

BTW, what about the 49-1 winner for Canterbury's own Paul Nolan?

He ran AP the last couple years and whatever he was on was a very viable candidate for the first horse I TOSSED. He rode like crap at AP.

i think he mainly benefits from getting live mounts. he gave me some rides at TP last winter that i'll never forgive him for. bad judgement and showboating cost me money.

Hey how did Golden Hare do???

He posted bail for me in the 11th. I owe the little guy.
