Did they buy Captain Bodgit before or after the Lrl Futurity?

I think they got Capt. Bodgit after the Laurel Futurity.

They certainly have won big races like the Big Cap, Atto Mile, Santa Anita Derby, etc. but a lot of those were one-hit wonder-types. Prized and Star Of Cozzene were the only horses I recall that held Grade 1-calibur form for several races.

....Golden Ballet, Cashier's Dream, Irridescence, etc. etc.

They have them listed at their website:

I couldn't stand FuPig. I don't care for him as a sire either... agree with others that he typically throws a bunch of headcases.

When i worked in the race office, if i had a buck for everytime a jockey told me he loved a horse he worked or that it was like driving a ferrari, i'd be a rich man. the problem is i would have bet on the horses they talked about and lost.
