Agree 100%

Is the Suburban even an option? Didn't the NY license for Midnight Cry expire?

Curlin 128
Student Council 118
G'hopper 117
Brass Hat 116

What was the last horse to carry 128 whie giving 10-11 lbs here? I believe he carried 132 in Dubai giving all 19 or more. Pretty impressive. Can't recall the last horse to be giving this kind of weight.

it is impressive but it looks fair to me. without giving weight like that the race isn't interesting.

Work Friday, family Saturday, fly out Sunday. Take an hour off. You still owe me a sandwich for that Bears-Dolphins game 5 years ago.
