REALLY nice win, that was fun.

I forgot to say last nite that my other decision for picks is who has the most pom poms and ribbons......
Seriously I do look for that....one night Rich Perloff almost came unglued, I forget which horse and race but an out of the blue winner was covered in pink pom poms and ribbons. His comment after was the only way to pick that horse was on pom poms...I laughed as I had already picked him.
Smile Jack had a red ribbon and Meiner Charles...
Deep Sky was very dressed up as well.

Results R8 thru 12

Oh and GOOD for Eye Popper, not a win but very respectable.

Ya know I didn't really think about it until last nite, one leg of the Japan TC and the US TC was taken by a filly, Rags and Vodka. Interesting.

I remember that... was that Agnes Raspberry? Not sure.

I think the red bow on the tail means "kicker".

Yeah very happy Eye popper looked okay. It got sad watching horses like Hat Trick go down down down.

Good enough!

Yeah, I thought it might, here it means kicker and other colors are just to be pretty. But being that Red is a good luck color in Asia, I wasn't sure.

No it wasn't Agnes Rasberry, it payed huge here and over there, can't remember who but I laughed. Com'on Rich didn't you know pom poms are a handicapping tool.....
