But today, Curlin will bow with the rest of the world to the new King, Casino Drive.

After today, millions of formerly non-believing oafs will begin to draw comparisons of Casino Drive to the great thoroughbred champions of his royal bloodlines. You have to go 8 generations deep in Casino's pedigree before finding a single inbreeding trait.

Casino Drive = Secretariat + Seattle Slew + Better Than Honour + A P Indy + Mineshaft + Mr. Prospector + Northern Dancer (CAN) + Deputy Minister + Nasrullah + Bold Ruler + Turn to (IRE) + Blushing Groom (FR) + Mint Copy + Native Dancer + Traffic Judge + Victoria Regina (CAN) + Buckpasser + Nashua + and yes, even + the immortal Man O War.

Casino is the best bred race horse to ever call planet earth home. And today, he will claim his birthright crown!!

no mention of the great Colin?

Is there any way possible (offshore, whatever) to bet this horse to come in last?

... Please say it is so.




Dr. Mush is about 87% touting a horse to win only to have it come in last or second to last.


At the risk of coming across as greedy, please tell me you've got the Phillies tonight

But, Colin's sire, Commando gives a 10x10x11x11x11x11 Casino Drive influence, with most of that influence passed on by Peter Pan. And isn't it ironic that Casino Drive DOMINATED his great great...granddaddy's namesake stakes race at Belmont Park, The Peter Pan?

Furthermore, and I may be mistaken, but I'm thinking Colin produced no offspring.

I said I'd return for the Breeders' Cup. Back a couple of months ago I said I had made two future wagers for Breeders' Cup Day. I was touting Zenyatta, and Casino Drive. I made no further bets. Yesterday, I cashed. Today, I cash for profit.

it is funny. i saw casino drives jock look behind him about ten second before getting inhaled and told my son, he's making sure there's no one behind him, because he knows he's about to make a beeline for the rear. sure enough.

oh man, and some of us got a lot of grief for dismissing this horse, who deserved to be dismissed.

Dr. Swine:

I implore you.... Please, for the love of all things good and holy, post your NFL picks in the Sports Bar and Grill. You may singlehandedly pull us out of the recession.

A grateful nation anxiously awaits your reply
