Congrats! You're the new trainer...

TFF has Chuckles beaten by a pole.

There is another that shall remain unnamed though that beats everyone by a mile.

And it's not PG.

He's done enough?

"Winless since taking the 2009 Kentucky Derby, Mine That Bird may have only one more yet-to-be-determined start in his career before being retired, according to Hall of Fame trainer Wayne Lukas. "That's their thought," Lukas said of owners Mark Allen and Leonard Blach. "If he runs well they may change their thinking."

Even though he has always sucked, if he was not a gelding he would have likely been retired mid summer, last year after the debacle in the WV Derby.

That's all they need to do is run him back at Woodbine. But a little late now for that.

Okay this is completely hypothetical... not at all what I expect to happen.

Again it's not like I've ever been a huge fan of his, it's more that I feel sorry for him.

That said, no delusions of mediocrity on my end.

What if he wins? What if he wins or hits the board?

Yeah I know, I know but what if? Then what?

He's a gelding. Of course you don't retire him. D Wayne has turned him into a morning workout fiend and nothing else. He's very unlikely to finish top 10 in the dirt mile. So he'll likely retire. He has done way more than enough. A horse runs 3 good races in his career and those 3 races are the Ky Derby, Preakness, and Belmont Stakes. People are still whining about it. More hilarity. In the end Chip Woolley's one legged pickup truck drive did more for racing than Zenyatta, no?? Maybe not, I think both are hated with extreme passion on this forum!!

I retire myself if he does well
