sounds like Knowlton and the boys have got a bug up barclay's *ss. There is no way a trainer as good as Tagg has any desire to put FC in that race. If they would stop chasing glory in the big yellow school bus and just let their trainer do whats right for the horse (spotting him where he can win) I would be a lot happier.

That was a great line and yeah, agreed.

They still haven't come to terms with the fact their 15 minutes are up.

Man I hope he runs in the Woodward. Shows one more time that he isnt Grade I caliber. Tagg cant find a spot for Funny Cide because he cant find a Graded race in the summer where it is contested in cool temperatures, and the field isnt any good. I like Tagg, cant stand the Sackotoga boys and I am neutral on Funny Cide. But come on, run this horse is some allowance races and get him 3 wins or so and then move up the conditions.

I don't have a problem with him running in the Woodward, I really don't.

I don't either. He ran a very good race earlier this year in which he displayed that tenacity of his.

the sakatoga guys have a complete hard-on about winning a race @ saratoga...they won't give up. is FC even eligible for an allowance race?

I don't know what ALW conditions Funny Cide would be eliglble for these days.

Just give him a GI shot. He's ran pretty well in his last couple of starts after that miserable sprint performance this year. I bet he runs better than we all think.
