Welllllllllllll

Relax Partners

No need for YET ANOTHER thread about Casino Drive

THIS JUST IN:

THE FAT MAN has been named to ride Casino Drive

I've got 2 1/2 weeks to get to riding weight.

I figure the odds of that are about as good as CD's chances of winning the race.

If I were a betting man: I'd put ALL my MONEY on the fat man

The connections have MUCHO confidence in me as well.

so are you saying that when the rider is finally announced it will be a day that lives in infamy?

I hope it isn't Take who gets the mount. We need someone with extensive Belmont Park experience.

My only source of info since the Preakness has been Japanese newspapers, and I am having difficulty translating. So you may be right.
