There’s nothing wrong with Jimmy Graham unlike some of those mentioned. My guess is that's are guy....

OK....debating on whether or not to book the flight yet.

Does this sort of race have a hard time filling? Can we wrap her in bubblewrap until the day so we know nothing goes wrong with her? LOL Flights are going for around $300 and you never know where they will be next week...

we're in the same boat! worst yet, we can fly from our local airport (10 min. drive) instead of the 90 min. drive to bwi, plus parking.

I took the leap of faith and booked my trip after hearing everything went well with the workout. If something comes up thats horse racing. Havn't seen are girl run yet, but its much easier and cheaper to get to Chicago than Louisville and Lexington and for that matter Saratoga. Hope to meet a bunch of DT'ers for the first time. Will still try to go to 'toga if she runs there.

They have had ZERO problems filling races. This is the first time since I have been alive I have seen a Saturday card available on a friggin Wednesday....

I spent a couple of days with Wayne Catalano and we carefully looked at Mr. Graham, and it was pretty clear from his comments, that MR. Graham left a lot to be desired...I'd choose anyone else.

I don't know...Catalano and Calabrese go through jockeys like underwear. I mean, Douglas wins the BC on DOA and now ET Baird has all their mounts? And you know that won't last long...He'll be gone by Aug. We're going to run at AP the day after SumWon and if Chuck asks my opinion, Jimmy Graham is absolutely on my short list. But then again, Chuck doesn't need my opinion:)

It's official, I've got the day off!!

Sightseek 06-29-2007 02:14 PM

If she wins it's going to be like when Cesario won the American Oaks :D

Good deal - after the big move to the Chicago area, if it turned out you had to miss Sumwon at AP in your back yard ... ! :)

SniperSB23 06-29-2007 05:39 PM

Does the purse increase at Saratoga have any impact on the Arilington race or are we definitely going to AP to try and get a win?

As of today, he has ridden 23 winners thus far thru the AP meet. That's about 5th in jock standings

We are pointing for AP unless Saratoga doubles the purses in which case all bets are off.

For those not watching the night program at Prairie Meadows (I have no life :D ) La Chateau and Humble Janet were part of the super, the later getting up for a well paying and fast closing second.
