as I recall he had 30 days to spend $30 million dollars. and it was for mayor of New York

My favorite part is where he lights himself on fire while free-basing cocaine.

Anyone have any opinion on 2-y-o male eclipse?

I would say that Union Rags still wins it based on his resume.

If Baffert runs Secret Circle in the Futurity at Hollywood in December, then Secret Circle takes 2 yr old honors provided Rags doesnt run anymore and win. As of now Hansen regrettably would be 2 yr old of year

100% agree. He feels like the best 2yr old out there. His episode in the stretch might not bode well for him stretching out though.

Read what I wrote. I think I was pretty clear that I feel it could be an issue. Ill give him a pass though because of the sub 21 opening quarter. If he runs like he did 2 back, 8.5-9f should be fine. It seemed like Bejarano was intent on gunning hard on Friday.
