Dell,

I am not going to go nuts and try and find it, although I would like to. I wouldn't be mentioning it if I didn't read it somewhere. I just don't think he is doing right by the horse. If it were me, he would be chilling with a horse alcoholic drink and enjoying the sun and sandpits......

OK I will put this to rest. I obviously think he's a class act and THE best Chicago has right now. Before posting what I did I tried to find his statement that the horse would NEVER run for a tag but couldn't. He also is a guy who ALWAYS stops and speaks with anyone (even when they're drunk and he's on his way for a winner's circle photo). I'll agree to disagree but still maintain this guy is all class and he is not you so I think casting judgment is wrong and out of line but it's your right. Go on the backside and compare his stalls and their cleanliness to others and you'll start to understand what I'm talking about. I'm finished now.

Again, I am not debating him as a person or his horseman skills, I couldn't agree more with you regarding his niceness and that all his horses look extremely well taken care of when they step on the track. What I am debating is the management of this specific horse, and what I percieve as a lack of respect for this specific animal
