I made my first public post ... and prediction ... about her ... that she would be the 3YO filly champion ... two hours after the race.

When did you make yours?

Since I was a Keeneland, I was an hour and a half away from a computer, I had to say it aloud approximately 10 seconds after the race....One other note from that race, she was a heavy favorite, some bomb ran 2nd and the Tri paid over a grand....

I'll take your word for it ... but it's not admissable in court ...

... there's no permanent public record of your statement ... but ... my post should be cached over at the "other" site.

As Casey Stengel would say ... "You could look it up."

Also of note: that race was on a Thursday, Commentator won a 3yo listed Stake Race at Keeneland that day...

Until you get some sort of Bernardini license plate, you aren't his biggest fan.

I don't know, maybe the same kind of nerd that would make his license plate an homage to the body of water separating France and England?

I trust you completely ... but ...

... those are data which anyone could look up and post.

Pedigree Ann spends her whole life doing stuff like that ... and she thinks she's a genii.

Smuggler was 3yo champion in a year where no horse deserved it. Definetely wont go down as a great, thats for sure. Could have easily went to Summerly or that Mott filly.

Absolutely correct ... but ...

... Phipps' man-servant shines Smuggler's Eclipse Award every other Thursday.

Need I pull up the thread from ESPN where you didn't even know she raced at Keeneland

this concept of claiming horses on here is odd to say the least.

I WAS BEING SARCASTIC DUDE! It is very silly to "claim" a horse unless you own it!

I am a big Gorella fan and have been since last year. Sorry that I don't follow as closely as you guys do as to who is racing and where. I get busy in life. I am not as obsessed with her as Kev is with EC, but I do love this filly. Only horse I am obsessed with as much as Kev is with EC is Buck. I have pics of him everywhere at the office, home, email them to all my friends, even post pics on this board. I even have a pic saved as my desktop on my computer. I am thinking about making my lic. plate to say "Bck Nkd"
