She said, "My breasts, they will always be open
Baby, you can rest your weary head right on me
And there will always be a space in my parking lot
When you need a little coke and sympathy"

We all need someone we can lean on.

Milk It Mick on the Big Cap undercard, only because I bet him at 12/1 on name only.

City Snitch demolished his field of well bred 2 year olds at the Spa.

I still think Bernardini's Jim Dandy was as impressive as they come.....never got out of second gear and simply embarrassed a pretty talented group of 3yos, puling away with every stride to the wire while the field was in an all-out drive and he was out for an easy jog...

I think we'll see whether or not it was as "easy of a jog" as you think. Sometimes it looks easy, but it takes more out of a horse than it looks. JMO...

Best performance of the year in my opinion...

I'd have to say Seek Gold in the Stephen Foster.

I agree on a free-running horse with brilliant speed as his or her main weapon - such as Officer when he was winning while never being asked early as a 2yo and some people thought he was the next coming.......Bernardini, however, doesn't fit that profile and that WAS a walk in the park....no doubt in my mind....this horse is a machine

Once again, we shall see. And Joel, you know as well as anyone... NO horse is a machine.

They don't hold up like machines.....we all know that....they are very fragile animals....But, some of the good ones have been able to perform as though they were supernatural, and this colt is one of those horses....he is the next coming..

You know that I am with you on Bernardini. His Jim Dandy really was a huge race.

Seriously gorella's race last weekend was pretty impressive. I just love seeing a horse throttle down like that in the stretch. Looked like a tubbed out Nova pulling the wheels in an 1/8 mile run at Ohio Valley raceway on Wed. night open runs.
