Re: Saratoga Seminars - 3 years ago

First post in quite awhile....... Shanny and Bob, I’ll be at the track on the 5th and 9th. I hope to see Youse Guys! I spoke with Trackjohn today he will be there August 7,8,9. Uncle Bill, Sean and Rocky for sure on Whitney Day. I spoke with Richiebee yesterday he will be up at some point, probably the last week. Any others please reach out and I hope to see Fairmount if he makes it here?

Re: Arlington Park For Sale - 3 years ago

I’ve read this thread and would like to make some corrections..... The loss of Arlington is supreme but in truth, who didn’t see this coming? CD lost Bay Meadows, Calder and now Arlington. The world has changed and horse racing as an industry was asleep at the wheel. OTB’s, tracks closing, etc.... it’s a joke that goes back until the 70’s! Whatever move the industry made was wron

Re: Following an 0-2X - 3 years ago

This was no where near an 0-2-X, one of the most misunderstood patterns here. -0, -2.1, -5.3 The race was 63 days ago, it clearly states in the definition the races cannot be more than 42 days apart. I bet the nag as well but this was no 0-2-X.

Re: Keeneland - 4 years ago

Add in: No Lasix No whips Bobby, Chad and the usual suspects. Bots eating up 35% of the pools at the majors. No need for FD to dig up any coffee cans to bet 😎 Oh YEAH now we have the Federal government involved in regulating while Nero & Charlie Daniels are breaking strings...... The Federal Government, the ONLY entity on Gods Green Earth that can come up with the BRILLIANT IDEA to

LOL 😂 Paul, Like Beautiful Memories I’m sure JB has stumbled coming out of the gate a couple of times with beautiful women!!! 😎

Good one Paul, Happy Derby Day.... 🥳 JB must have Chuckles under COVID quarantine?

Re: Guessing there was a dead rail today - 4 years ago

I guess I was watching different races today? 10 dirt races, 4 were won by horses 2/1 or less, 3,6,10,11 The 4th the 3 went Coast to Coast on the rail @ 7/2 2nd choice. The 3rd was 1/2 exacta who both sat the fence and tipped out to pass the tiring speed in the stretch. The 8th was a pace battle royal that collapsed. 1 & 2 were wide open maiden heats The Oaks? Because Johnny V. Rode

NYRA - 4 years ago

Today @ 11:39 they scratched the 5th race MTO’S while it was pouring and a weather map a clueless clown could read...... At 12:06 they took the 5th and 3 other races off the grass. Their website lists the track as fast/firm with the 3rd on both the Mellon & inner courses, the 6th on the inner and off the turf.... You could not possibly be more incompetent if you tried.

Re: Lasix from our host.. - 4 years ago

JB, Very far from politically correct.... But a good line, one has to admit! It’s actually still listed in the Spanish Urban Dictionary. I guess I’ll live with Rocky & Richiebee tearing down the Frank D. Statue in the back yard. What could possibly be more absurd in a game with a laundry list of serious problems jumping over Lasix to discuss if fillies, mares, colts & gelding

Re: Lasix from our host.. - 4 years ago

I can hear the clamor and confusion on the back side. El Caballo es la Maricon? Si 😂

Re: Lucy Splain.... - 4 years ago

JB, Not so quick to sing Sinatra’s praises. He was at the helm at Laurel a couple years ago when Vitali had 30 plus violations in Florida. Instead of facing his FL violations Vitali simply surrendered his Florida license. He not only was allowed to enter at Laurel, a Stronach track. I believe he was leading trainer there that year or at worst a top 3? Just like with Potts @ NYRA, it’s a

Lucy Splain.... - 4 years ago

Would anyone care to offer their best Ricky Ricardo explanation of how Wayne Potts was able to run a horse at the Spa yesterday when Charles Town won’t take his entries? Oh and by the way.... Our Destiny ran significantly faster yesterday than he ever had before. As Oscar Barrera once said when asked about one of his miracles. “ I put da blinkers on him”

Re: Alabama - 4 years ago

Many Moons ago Tom..... Miff says 4.5 only because JB says 5, shocking 😂

Re: Pick 5 or Empire 6? - 4 years ago

Gulfstream’s 🌈 as well Rock, it happened a few years back. The player hit repeat bet by accident, it was a small play that hit and would have been the only single ticket. I recall it was a decent or would have been a decent pay day but not life changing. IMHO: It defeats the entire purpose of the bets structure. In the get more handle regardless of who or how it hurts/helps business mode

My boy Kent.... - 4 years ago

I’ve never been shy with my opinions..... 😎 IMHO: Kent D. is in my all time top 10 jocks that ever sat on a horse. It just goes on and on and on! Ala P Val or the late great Ant man. A few of the backyard crew have met my friend Chip, a Cajun transplant who has been up north for years. Whenever I introduce him to anyone it’s always prefaced with he has the most intelligent daughte

Spaaaaaa Time - 4 years ago

In the midst of a global pandemic, one would never know that per The Presidents “Press Conference” yesterday let’s do some Spaaaa.... WTF else is there to do? Oklahoma looks more like October than July, many of the seasonal residents are here, quite a few non masked folks are wandering around Broadway. The Horse Shoe, Bailey’s and The Stadium are showing the races outside on big scre

Re: OH Derby - 4 years ago

Interesting times in many ways these days.... Roger N. tried to talk me on to this horse today on a text string with a few of us T-generates. A horse that took 8 tries to break his maiden and did so off the drop into a MCL event. A Cox throw away. Amoss certainly works his share of miracles, usually first off the claim. A 50k claim wins a graded 500k stake. Any owners/trainers on here want

Won’t that just make great prison yard conversation when Servis & Navarro are walking around in circles.....

Re: The Charlatan Derby - 4 years ago

Re: OP Observation - 4 years ago

A no brainer Bill.... With the Baffert show in town tomorrow it will most likely be more front end friendly. The Nadal heat of the Ark Derby has a ton of speed in it and I was looking for deep closers. Silver Prospector was my choice and the shortest ML of the 4 I was using. A total re boot and watching the early heats tomorrow closely. The same can be said for Rushie in leg one of the late

Re: CD Can Open As Early as 5/11 - 4 years ago

Which will really make for a PJ Campo Spa condition book of 5f turf sprints for NYB’s..... GREAT😱

Re: CD Can Open As Early as 5/11 - 4 years ago

Which would mean..... KY horsemen not shipping to the Spa except for targeted stakes. Many outfits may choose to stay in Florida as well. Cost factor of shipping as well as NYS workman’s comp & payroll issues to run for a smaller pot? No Aqueduct Casino or NYRA cash cow of live crowd extortion will make for a non-Spa like purse structure. Personally I see no point in running the S

No NYRA for Quite Awhile - 4 years ago

Think of the positive.... If they turn Aqueduct into a 1000 bed hospital? Let’s add in medical/support staff to the patients, that will be the most people inside Aquedump in 20 years! Anyone giving better than even money on a Spa meet this year? Uncle Bill will get very confused with every other picnic table. 😎 In all seriousness to all our TG friends in the NY Metropolitan area

Re: I Always Hated Christmas Day - 4 years ago

🐝 I slept in this morning and read your post before the coffee was done! On cup 2 and after a re-read...... I’m looking at the news with Governor Andrew Cuomo ranting about New Yorkers not taking social distancing seriously and that the National Guard will be used in DC to keep space between the Cherry Blossom wanderers..... Calder did race on Christmas & New Years Day for many ye
