And your failure to bet him, as you have touted him for going on a year, was the least impressive performance of the day.

I don't think it was a particularly great race overall, but I was pretty impressed with Miss Shop's performance...they came home pretty quick and she looked good.

Brian,
I'm with you on Miss Shop. I talked with one of my friends last night and it seems like all the backstretch people have nothing but good things to say about H A Jerkens. Hobeau farm! Daughter of Deputy Minister...
Miss Shop!!!

You can't find anyone at the track with anything bad to say about Jerkens. He has probably, from what I've heard both directly and indirectly, helped more people around the racetrack than anyone ever. To me nobody represents all that is great about this game as well as the Chief does.

Hell, he even worked with Cannon Shell, and if that isn't magnanimous I don't know what is.

Hes ridden some pretty obscure jockeys on some very good horses. Cant think of anyone else in the game who just doesnt care which jockey is on his horses.

Blackthroat,
Well said!
I don't know Cannon Shell (yet), but the Chief is a once in a more than a few.

He gave me a tremendous vocabulary to work with.

My favorite line of his, which I am guessing you heard many times, is " everything that happens to everyone else happens to me in reverse ".
