What does Carolina Barbeque offer up?

mustard-vinegar based I believe.

Sorry for interrupting the food thread but I have a question (don't have pps)...

In the House of Delegates Speaker's Cup... I'm sorry but is that the Railroad or are there two?

Is this the same horse who came in behind King's Drama (and right in front of my favorite horse ever Hendrix) in the San Gabriel (2006? 2007?) ?

Thanks in advance.

My PP's only go back to 2009 but he was trained my Brian Koriner and raced at SA in 4/09. He has lifetime earnings of almost $500,000.

Same horse.
This is a great betting race. Railroad will be midfield in the wagering,30-1 ML
$2 win on him in 49 lifetime starts would yield roughly $98. Only twice has he been over 20-1 and the biggest price he paid in 13 wins was 11-1.
I'm in for a Hamilton.

Thanks, guys!

I had wondered what became of him but completely forgot to add him to my stable mail and hadn't seen this name in forever.

Big fan and yeah Port Conway Sir I know, I know but with this guy it's all about rooting. They're not all Citation.

I'd be rooting for him whether I bet the race or not.
I'm not sure how Citation has any bearing on this
Anyway here's to the good old geldings

On the old DRF forum, an individual who was intimately associated with Railroad(no joke intended) gave info on a health condition Railroad had recently corrected thru surgery. He went on to say that the trainer said Railroad was now much improved. He won at mid odds, maybe 6-1 or 8-1, I may be able to tell by looking back at the pp's. I beleive more than a handful of us took it to the bank
Railroad has won(as well as lost) for me since, I've lost site of him since his decline into low claming ranks, but he's 3-3 on this turf, appears to be in top form, and needs just one horse in this race(IMO Vanquisher) to have a sub-par race in order to pull the upset. I'm sure he'll be there trying at the top of the stretch
