Shake You Down

[saucon17]

If he does run, lets all pray that he makes it safely around
the race track. I hope I never see Cole's ugly yellow silks with the
word MOTHER in pink in the winner circle again. Ego maniac

In all reality this might be the dumbest thread ever posted on here. There are some people that read this forum to learn something about the game of racing and the horses in it. To have a bunch of people that have never been in a barn or worked with tbreds start to post this drivel is both non informative and demeaning to the professionalism of Byk's beloved forum.

FACT: Whether a horse enjoys or suffers through being raced has NOTHING to do with the type of race it's in or where it has run before. The age of the animal is also meaningless up to about 9.

This thread is a perfect example of a bunch of no nothings and wannabees passing themselves off as horseman.

Bethani gets a pass on this one because I truly believe her hands on experience has been validated in the past. I would say the same goes for Blue Eyes and Honu.

What happened....stood up by Bea Arthur again?

By the way, while I realize English is far from your first language, I wouldn't want YOU to contribute to the further decline in literacy. It would be " know nothings "....not " no nothings ".

And, also, I see you have 30 posts. Pretty amazing. Apparently even you realize how idiotic most of your posts are and end up deleting 95% of them.

Can anybody say " pathetic "?

[blackthroatedwind]

Wait...it's even better. Check out the thirty remaining posts.....they have all been erased of content!

You're even crazier than I thought....which isn't easy.

Damn, how long do you get to edit or delete posts here? This could be fun.

I think Dicksie has abused the priviledge. Might be time for a change.

while all this Dixie bashing is in keeping with the spirit of the forum,
the man is right.


most of us are not horsemen and its NEVER our place to tell another man what to do with his property.
there is a concept of property rights here that I guess a lot of you dont get.

If this Cole dude wants to hitch a wagon to shake you down and give kids a ride around the block for $1/ride, then thats what he should do.
its his horse.
and if he wants to run him for 5k, then I thats what he should do.

its a RACEhorse.
never understood why someone would not want a racehorse to race.

Its brutal to run an old class horse like Shake You Down for 5k, regardless of economics, especially in current form. I mean look at this horses previous running lines, all those huge efforts, all those times he showed up in grand fashion and laid his ass down for this guy. Disgusting really

Dix, by your standard this horse turns 9 in a couple days.

Maybe the owner just wants to send him out a winner? The class, being fresh, maybe that will be enough for this old boy to get the job done one more time? I doubt it.
