Watching (and losing) the 7th and the 9th race at AP today made me wonder (again) why there is ever a G1 or G2 turf race run anywhere in the country where Graham doesn't have a mount. He is so much better than many of the "big names" that it boggles the mind.

Congrats to all of Team Bob on another in-the-money finish for RS, although it sure looked again like it might be more than that when they turned for home.

Interesting. The dam was a pretty good runner though right?
I would assume that an Awesome Again/Skip Trial should have some stamina, & coupling that with being a "nice athlete" sure makes him seem like quite a value at that price.

That horse has no idea how much he cost. You feed him train him and pray no matter what they cost.

Exactly. The breeding nicked out really well and he was kind of that guy that teams draft in the 4th round with a shitload of potential.

The Smart Strike was more of a solid first round pick.

It is a bunch of old guys sitting in a room seeing who they can piss off.

I doubt they know who Jim Morrison is.

Nice horses! Personally, I like your Johar filly the best, followed by the Johar colt. She looks like a dandy to me. I really don't know how to appraise racehorses, but for eventing she is top notch! Good luck with all of them. Its a buyer's market. Great time to invest.

Then you should name him Jim Morrison!

Or how about "Un-Even Flow"?

You could always try:

Bettor Man; Bettah Man; Better Mann. Not the same thing though..

Mojo Risin might have been accepted because the actual name of the song is "L.A. Woman?"
