Who says I am not dissatisfied? Quite honestly, I feel all the races she runs this year are bonus because she was suppose to be retired.

She can't control who shows up to run, she ran at Oaklawn and no one showed up, same would happen in NY or anywhere else.

Oh, and sorry for being excited about being at the great race place for a great race, sure beats being onsite and cheering one of those NY bred turf sprints home....

Um, doesn't that mean you're not dissatisfied?

Then take on some of those monstrous males in your backyard. Or is that too stressful for her?

Yeah, because I've never seen any big races living in NY. Go back to trying to get people outside of Illinois to care about Arlington Million Day.

This is probably what I am dissatisfied with the most, but it isn't like I am going to change, so why bitch about it. I don't disagree with you about her racing in open races.

Yeah, that is exactly what I am doing on Million Day, I can absolutely give a **** about Arlington right now.

So smart Chief Message Board

Has your boner really not gone down since the BC last year? That must hurt.

I was ready to go after that race but then when I looked in my pocket and saw a win ticket on Gio Ponti that readyness went away pretty quickly.

ummm.. she runs in restricted races. Its not like that huge mountain named Rail Trip can run in the Zenyatta. Besides her & Blind Luck, all the fillies and mares on the West Coast are absolute garbage. Who's supposed to show up and face Zenyatta in these amazing Grade 1 races? Quality Road? Blame? They are called restricted races for a reason.

come on now.
