Well, he hurt me a whole lot -- but I was really impressed with him...and he looks like a monster, you're right about that.

What a run. Very interested to see what he does next out when the waters presumably get deeper

How is the field going to be any different next out, if anything, it might be a short field because some of these horses showed up for that 'bonus' try....

I'm not a ferrier so I have to ask what are those on Giant Oak's feet? Bar Shoes? Anyone know a good website to see the different options they have?
