Nah, he sucks. The horses he's got are great, though. They train themselves.

Seeing as how you just brought Rounders up, thought I would add how I just watched the movie again yesterday, and it never gets old. I watch it probably once a week

Personally I think the one he scratched out of the race Fierce Wind won on Monday will turn out to be OK and the better of the two.

I also think Cool Coal Man might be pretty good but I've always kind of liked him so maybe I'm biased.

I also like that one. Think he'll be Mineshaft's best of his first crop, not sure he's going to be ready for the Derby though- might need more time to develop but he'll run all day for sure.

Cool Coal Man? He's fine. He didn't scratch from Tampa for any physical reasons. He may not prove to be a Derby horse but he'll get his chance to show whether or not he belongs.

Nah, I mean developmentally, not physically- especially given Mineshaft took so long to develop. Seems like he's still growing, putting it all together. But you never know with these 3yos... Sam F Davis likely for him?
