Firm ground could keep Workforce from running

Dammit. I want a decent number on Behkabad.

So the horse might die if he runs. Churchill needs to boot that sissy off the grounds.

Didn't he win the English Derby in track record time on ground labeled "Good-to-firm" .. ??

I'm going to guess the ground was pretty damn firm that day as track records aren't set unless the surface is live.

I really hate having to listen to all of these retarded Europeans every year. The content of what they say is almost always utter crap - but they sure do have a fancy colorful and smart sounding way of saying utter nonsense.

I agree. This is complete nonsense and this is either an attempt to say something is wrong with him, or they are blowing smoke up peoples asses for some other reason. Probably something along the lines of showing how great a horse he is if he wins over a course he 'hates'.

I've been saying this for a while - they have a much less analytical way of looking at the races. . .

More dark "humor." I'm starting to get it. I guess.

I listened to Steve and the group talking about this on ATR a little while ago. None of them seemed to have a problem with the connections pulling Workforce from the race because of the surface. It's up to the connections to decide what's best for their horse.

This would ruin a lot of my plans.

It weirds me out that old people are using the internet.
