Two Punch euthanized at 28

Nice to know your picks don't affect the prices there. Tough crowd there, huh?

Bunch of $5 bettors there who's legs start to shake when they think about betting something higher than 5/1.

Still, It's but one race from over a hundred this meet - I've had two 0-for-8 days so far.

Blasphemy. You should probably hang it up and take up playing golf with Phil.

I suck at golf. Can't drive, can't chip, can't putt and I get callouses on my hands.

Here was the form of that longshot winner:



What I liked about the horse was that it had a nice turf pedigree - yet never tried turf. Only ran twice at PID (or any other syn before) and was 3rd at 58/1 and 3rd at 120/1 odds in those two - both times racing against a strong bias - and most importantly both of those PID races in sprints.

It's four worst speed figures on the above form all came in the only four sprint tries showing - and now it was getting a chance to finally route on a surface it obviously loved. Drawn inside (which is huge in the routes here) and facing a sh!t field.

That's the kind of horse that wasn't paying no $76 to win a track with sharper players - but it still would have paid a lot I think.

Jesus, I wish I had the time to devote to this like you do.

Yes. It's a tough life.


Here is the summer cottage I bought with my gambling winnings from last years PID meet:




Oh, and his name is Davio - he's an Illegal Alien from Honderous who does all the yard work ... I tell people he's my brother just so they don't check his green card:




Here I am with my daughter - she was an accident. Her mom, Cameron Diaz, only likes it up the butt - but one time it was dark....:




Here I am swimming - had the pool installed with the money I made on the Tall Timbercowgirl race at PID. Gambling is a hard life - your skin becomes pale.

Other interesting facts about me:


I've also been known to dabble with training race horses. Little known fact - but - here I am in my older days with Silver Charm. People think Bob Baffert trained Silver Charm - wrong, it was me, Bob was just the program trainer:




I also ride in endurance races with Sheik Mohammed in Dubai when I have the spare time:





Finally - I also train champion fight dogs in my spare time. The one I'm holding below is Arnie "The Deadly 1/2 Delmation" Salvatore - he was the former heavyweight champion of Michael Vick's famed Bad News Kennels before the Feds took it down:

You had to encourage him GPK.
