Just a horse we loved last year.
Went off form but came back and ran a big one the day after the Breeders Cup and paid 50 bucks to win.
Ny-bred that started with Paula Capestro out in California.

I used him in gimmicks but keyed a horse with him whobattled for the lead and then stopped. I was pretty mad at myself for how I played the race and fully deserved to lose. I used a horse of dutrow's named Cobra (King?) with him in gimmicks.
I had stopped at Buffalo Raceway on the drive home from the BC to catch the last few at Ny and CD. It took Cannon Shell to bail me out with Sabellina. Thing that was funny about that was that she won a photo I was sure she had lost. I wasted a pretty good tantrum complete with cursing and swearing about getting beat the last jump and why oh why did didn't I just keep driving instead of stopping to play the last few races. They put up her number and I actually had to pick my tickets up off the ground because I had thrown them there. I dunno how in the world she won that race, you could watch the replay 10 times and swear she got beat.

I still can't believe she won.
