Interesting pedigree on Shared Belief. There is some good California blood in there, including the forgotten and unappreciated sire, Pirates Bounty.

This horse is quite interesting.

It's surprising that a horse this overwhelming in his performances would be:

1. Gelded
2. Debuted in Northern California
3. Sold after his debut (no idea for how much).

He wasn't even favored in his debut either!

I would love to find out more about what's likely wrong with this horse.

A completely mistimed squawk coming on the heels of a Breeders' Cup that featured 5yo's Mucho Macho Man, Fort Larned, Justin Phillip, Point of Entry & Pants On Fire, 7yo's Flat Out & Jeranimo... Not to mention 5yo mares Royal Delta, Authenticity, Groupie Doll, Tiz Flirtacious, Marketintg Mix, Laughing & Mizdirection.

Oh stop Steve. Females can't be gelded, do you need a biology lesson?

Do you think the best horse in training Wise Dan would be racing if he had balls?

Thanks too.

I loved betting Pirates Bounty FTSs.

Too bad he never got any really high quality mares bred to him.

Thanks.

Listening to Dorf speak is kind of funny.

Conservative in what he says, and sounds like he's straight out of the 1950s.

As for the horse, I'm guessing they really didn't think too much of him until he ran.
