Ahh the good old college days. How long did it take you to lose back that after playing again? A day or a weekend? Viscious cycle, aint it? If it wasnt burning money at the OTB it was buying beer in Canada or bribing broads to play barbie with you. Oh how I miss those days!

Tim I said in the post I took a month off from horses after that and stuck with drinking. that was my freshmen year, you werent up there then and I was much tamer. It wasnt until my 2nd year that I turned into a full fledged nut. Then after I pledged the fraternity, forget it, lights were on but noone was home.

I'll tell you one horse that absolutely came through for me the two times I was really counting on him:

UNBRIDLED...

Thought he could win the Derby and then loved him in the BCC.. And he didn't disappoint either time...

Couple others?

Lure rarely let you down...

Here's a beauty... Itsallgreektome...!!! Backwheeled him in the '90 BC.

Tap the Admiral from my friend's barn and Del Carroll always ran his race for you...

and these days? Spooky Mulder, the greatest horse ever to look at the infield through a bridle...
