This one really makes me ill

Picture of him defeating Empire Maker on his pedigree query page:

Hearing stuff like this makes me respect the guys from Sackatoga a little bit more, who at least let Funny Cide "go out" a winner. At least not all owners are A Holes.

i expected him to be a top level horse.

in my eyes, he was the most talented horse in that entire crop, and i loved that win against empire maker.

i loved too that he was probably even better on turf!

How often did they try him there? I see his dam was placed in the Prix de l'Opera. If only he were a filly...

I don't remember him and I have a pretty good memory No one is going to claim a horse off a long layoff, why not make some money on the way back up, if up is the direction he is going? Maybe he doesn't have enough saved up for retirement, what else is he supposed to do? He's probably burned through all his purse winnings already...he's looking at what, at least $300 a month for retirement?

i believe his turf record was 3 wins in 4 starts.

We should have bought him if he was sound and let uncle chuck work the magic...

i cant think of a single horse that has remained sound after being trained by gary mandella.

especially back then, in those first days of his career.
