Can't Bob bring back some Chinese herbs or something? Maybe you mix a little accupunture with some demineralized tiger nuts and a splash of ginseng?

Maybe toss a little Amgen epo in the mix?

I'm really interested to see how Jimmy Toner's horse runs.
Hot Dixie Chick is a freak. That's my comment.

She reminds me too much of Ocean Colors who went off at 1.30-1 last year, from the rail no less.

It's just hard for me not to be impressed with a horse who can go :44.2, shaking off all challenges, and then still come home in :11.4 while drawing off.

Think she was awesome to watch that day.

If I owned a track, I'd name stakes after has-been actors and actresses. "Today's Gary Coleman Handicap will be run at two-furlongs. The winner of tomorrow's Mr. T Handicap will receive a gold chain."
Careful with that Mr. T talk!!

I never bought into the story a few years ago that Mr. T was selling his trademark jewelry because he wanted to change his image. Only a fool would think the fire sale had nothing to do with the high price of gold and Mr. T's lack of acting opportunities.

Kenneally will silence the doubters when his filly wins the Schuylerville.

Aegean with Castanon on, rather than JV is interesting. Tough race though.
