I know they've made some silly purchases in the past...but really?

They employ Harty and Suroor.

Nuff said.

I doubt those two have 1000 functioning brain cells between them.

That's like saying PG1985 is a great bettor because he's cashed a few tickets.

Please tell me you aren't serious about that post.

If you are serious, that is epic stupidity.

If by not seeing an opinion out of me you mean an opinion on every possible subject or race, than yeah, you got me beat.

Super Derby Probables

Golden Moka-- Might go to PA Derby
Apart
Coyote Legend
Distorted Economy
Monsignor
Hurricane Ike
Wando Redd
Ricky Tick

Do owners not realize they are paying a nice purse for the race?

It's been quite a year for Godolphin. They have ZERO Graded Stakes wins in the US and just seven total wins...and only 4 Group 1 wins overseas.....three of which were in Germany. $12 million in purses worldwide.

Honestly, that would be like the Yankees winning 37 games.

It's not like they don't have quite a few geldings...

Age of Reason, Whispering Gallery, Sabotage, City Style, Highland Glen... there are others.

Just sayin...

(I think Sugar Ray is one) (?)
