He was beaten a neck and 3.5 lengths at the Grade 1 level in his final two starts ... on his 2nd best surface. That's not my idea of being uncompetitive when you're talking about a Cal Bred.

I realize he's not going to find dirt out there - and for whatever reason - he can't beat a goat, or crack an 82 Beyer when he ships out of So Cal so ... shipping to where there is dirt won't help.

Besides fooling me a couple of times ... this is a horse that I think litterally might have ruined a trainers life.

I had a laptop when Lonnie Arturburn was around and had his lifetime form pulled up ... because I like to mess with people... and he's a pretty cool guy.

The guy gets fat breeder bonus checks from the horse so I assumed he still was rooting for him. He was having a total meltdown looking at the form and I can assure you he's no fan of that horse.

You would think the horse knifed him in the back or something - and the look on his face and seeing him shaking was scary. Scary enough that I couldn't laugh at some of the nonsense coming out of his mouth if I tried to.
