Default Arlington Million greats



Maybe he just liked the lasix?

A truly stupid ride cost him a Breeders Cup Turf win.

He got left at the start from post #1 and made a cyclonic pre-mature move with 4 full furlongs remaining. A truly hilarious ride.

Remember it all too well because I was all in on him.

Worse ride, that one or Murtagh on Soldier of Fortune in the BC?

I'd have to watch SoF's again.

Spencer stinks.

Can I mention two brilliant Spencer memories?

I can't decide which I liked better... his ride on Antonius Pius in the Poule d'Essai des Poulains or in the BC Mile.

I have watched that same scenario over and over in Little Mike's races. It's all right there in black and white in the past performances. Somebody needs to come along side and look the horse in the eye, but these pinheads refuse to do it race after race.
