Steve, My Golden Song cost me in his races at Gulfstream and big time in the Illinois Derby. I still have people ragging on me because I gave him out as a serious Derby contender.

They say, "Hey Gus, how's My Golden Song doing?"

People can have the same one here. Just making sure people realize that.

Achilles of Troy is a good one someone mentioned. Too bad how this horse was managed.

Scav, I remember quite well. I knew I was heading for trouble. J/K
He looked the part, but he could never finish. Hey, it also happened to me in '03 with Master David. My Golden Song and Master David have to be my top two bust that I gave out with plenty of confidence. I had a get out of jail free card because I was also very high on Monarchos in '01 and he made me look like a genius in that Derby, if only Congree would of hold off Invisible Ink for 2nd.

Lol, I hate thinking back to old Derbies. I liked freakin Buddy Gil & Brancusi in 03 and loved Borrego in 04. But good ole, Master David. I think he's something like 2 for 26 now and is in claiming ranks.

Master David never won another race after the Sham Stakes in 2004. He has not run in claiming races and was recently retired....though there is some talk he may return.

I for one can't wait.

BTW, my bad. Your right. He's been in allowance conditions since April 05, was transferred from Frankel to Barbara (also sold privately to Peter Minikes) and last ran on 6/17 - last of 6th beaten 30 1/2 lengths. Current career record of 24-2-5-6-331k. Hadnt heard he was retired, but it wouldnt surprise me....
