Half Ours was the KD winner as per Cordero before he ever ran

I was there for his maiden score... 11-years-old, but I remember it like it were yesterday. I attended my first Breeders' Cup later that year when he out-gamed Hennessy (and of course Cigar later won). And when he turned for home with the lead in the Derby, I went nuts. He was definitely one of my all-time favorites.

ya he is my all-time favorite... the reason I started following horse racing when I was 12.

Who knows how much better my life would be had that not happened!

At least Spainard is assured of avoiding trouble inside with Mike Smith to take him WIDE.

have you looked at the race ? if bafferts anywhere near 3-1, and harty does not draw in... i think hes a great bet, even at 5-2, but i doubt you will get anywhere near that

If that baffert horse can run, like his others that were at this stage, if he is not even money then you are best not to be playing him. If he is 3/1 then see if the horse has all four legs.

Yeah, but it was a key race, so what did you expect.

They need to breed her back to Indian Charlie...
