Most recently, I've been looking at GI ulcers having an effect on the overall athletic abilities in the actively training racehorse.

Rather than titling the segment "homocide at CD," it was titled "the darkside of horseracing." I recall sometime back their was a very feisty convers...

Okay, gurus, I'll follow your suggestions but a new rule is that future posts have to have "elaboration" and "footnotes." You all have been confiding in each other privately for too too long. We already have one private blog on PQ. I'll take responsibility for keeping the "censorship" at bay. All yo...

Diomed: I'm in my twilight years. Not much time left. Amuse me. You should know by now that I always have my nose in a book or resource. Help out here. I live here with wannabees in VA.

Vineyridge posted: One rather interesting thing to me about Tesio is that he used Catnip, whose dam was North American and she worked REALLY well for him. He also used, IIRC, Orby whose dam was North American in the mare Navarra. I've come to believe that there was enough variation from the British ...

It appears that the chief moderator (probably at the behest of Diane and few others) is coming out of her closet after a lengthy hiatus to chime in concerning unsavory characterizations and accusations. Now that the terms "ban, delete, and censor" are on the moderator table again, we all have to be ...
