this is so freaking funny I can barely type this.

why not announce that Cambiocorsa is not running in the BC Mile? its just about as relevant.

this horse is not very fast,
not very sound,
and not very interesting.

How can this turn into a dump on this horse and Mandella? Look at the years accomplishments by the horse. Imo it is tougher for Mandella to pass on the race, than it would be to go. I think this move by Mandella shows his status as a responsible and quality trainer. Mandella does not need to have a horse in the BC to have the status. If this horse would hae been fit and went to the race, he probably wouldnt have been my pick but he would of had my respect.

well said. I love to root for this horse, I'm sorry he's not right for the big one. But the great thing about him is he'll be back for me to root for next year...gotta love a gelding.

Totally agree. That's why Mandella is at the top of my list of trainers in Cal.

Kinda like YOU!!
what the hell are you talking about?
I am very sound.
have not had a serious injury in almost 7 years now.
and I am very fast.
plus i can run all day.
as for being intersting, thats a matter of opinion.

but you are way off buffy by saying that i am not fast and not sound.
btw, the Tin Man is still slow and he totally sucks as a racehorse.
deal with it.

You may be fast, but you type really slow.

not really.

Its not essential to my job that I type x amount of words/minute,
but I get by.
its not like I have a personal secretary or anything. although it would be nice.
