If I'm not mistaken I cashed some tickets on that horse at Churchill or Turfway in the past several years.

It's kind of a joke with Kiri and I. EG was my horse for the derby yrs ago. I believe he had a very tough trip in the SA Derby....Stevens almost fell off the horse. Horse ran bad in The Derby and then again...and again.......I caught a lot of **** for backing the horse.....well.....EG has turned out to be an ok Opt Claimer.....bringing in a decent amount of checks...

You were dead on about Easy Grades... those three wins are more than Corinthian and Steppenwolfer will have in 07 combined...

Im still waiting for my Byanosejoe predictions to come true...

When did Easy grades win those races?

Wasn't he running for a 10K tag at Hawthorne last winter and maybe Churchill?

Hey, he was still winning though!

Hey, I'll like a horse like that more for the rest of time than a horse who runs a few big races and dissappears.

Agreed, but he doesn't have much of a choice as a gelding.

Hey Cajun,
At least his career can go forward in the "All Boy Horse Choir", neighing at a higher pitch.
Future life as a teaser. Ain't we all?
