Yup ... that'll do.

Too bad we can't stage all the races to prove it.

I haven't read the whole thread and someone may have said this, but to paraphrase Justice Potter Stewart, I can't define what a "great" horse is, but I know it when I see it.

Great horses are just that, "great horses".

Don't matter if they won 5 races or 35 races

I just do not have the patience for this BS................

Come on, lighten up Dix!!! It's too early in the a.m. to be throwing in the towel.

You do realize that the football season is upon us.. Usually by this time of the year, you are more keyed up than $500 Qt in a farm match race.

Hey Ez ...

I dont know how you've dealt with it for this long boss! Most of these MORONS dont know from which end a horse EATS.
