There's a shocker.

Did you ask him what happened to Hapsburg in the 5th?

A caller did... And Contessa reports that Mr. Hapsburg will be 'sans doodads' next time you see him run... Under the burdizzo tomorrow...

Will someone please post where I can get a decoder ring...I've lived down south too long and haven't a clue what you're talking about.

He was brutal. Penn National maybe, he could loose on the lead in a 5f race.

Maybe he just had a lung infection. Nothing like inside information from the stable to help you cross out a bad line. Maybe you can bet on him and lose more money which you should be saving to buy a new suit. Then again, I wonder who would win a match race of bad oracle selections, Bad boy rising, or Hapsburg.

I was waiting for you to come back and tell us which one of those horses out of the "great key race" at AQueduct was gonna win today as you promised!!!!
Sadly, neither hit the board.

The horse Mike Lerman trains that finished fourth today is the best horse in that race.

I saw the race, and think that the 2nd place finisher is just as good.
Off that layoff and having to deal with that horse who kept impeding him, I'd expect him to win the next time they run if they faced each other.

I disagree strongly. Lerman's horse is the best horse in both races it ran in.
