LOL! You wanna wager that they aren't leading owner at years end? I will give you 2-1 odds. Hell make it 5-1. Your 100 bucks vs my five hundred, are we on?

Of course not, Darley is looking at 3M just for the BC Classic. Had Barbaro been around though, Barbaro and Showing Up alone probably could have brought in 5-6M between them.

Excellent reply and Showing Up has one more race where he can earn cash, the Secretariat. After that he's gonna get thrown to the wolves that are this years older turf division. Thats no knock on Showing Up, who is a telented horse himself.

Showing Up is going to earn $1M+ this year at a minimum. Not bad for a $60K purchase. I wouldn't go counting him out of making money in the Turf Classic. The BC Turf is obviously a little more difficult with the Europeans, but Showing Up is just as good as English Channel was at 3 and English Channel only lost by a nose to Shakespeare in the Turf Classic.

Showing Up is a joke. And how ironic that you never showed up. I told you to bring those friends with you, nothing. Not even a peep. You are officially a gutless coward.
