you may know something about training but i would out handicap this entire forum drunk with both hands tied behind my back. I don't think you are giving most people on this forum much credit. You don't know anybody here and what they have or have not done. I put myself through college thanks to han...

seriously guys you guys know better than to put that much stock into a gallop out. Seriously!!! go train a horse for a day or two before you start talking about what is improtant and what isn't. The gallop out can tell you a lot about a horse in the morning and afternoon) even more so when you are ...

I'm glad to see that most of the horsemen and women on this post saw what I saw. By the way BDW I don't bet, aside from a few bucks on Derby and BC day, so you don't have to warn me off a horse. Not that I put any weight into the majority of what you post on here anyways.

It was at Laurel Park in the morning, a horse for a top trainer collapsed after the wire. He broke his nose and a vertabrae in his back, not sure how long he's out.

If the human anchor had him outside and in the clear like last time he gallops. Not sure if he was instructed to cover him up or not, but that was the worst trip you could ask for and he was still running on at the wire.

ya, other than the fact the race that Hands On won had a purse the size of the total daily distribution at River, and Delaware River has won more money in his career than River Downs gives out in a season. So they are real hard knockers, not the sad type you see running at Beulah and River picking u...

Shammy, I would question your "one" national language comment, here in the States. Most food products now have english and mexican on them, not much different than the cluttered 3 language packaging up in Canada

Its funny that Beyer uses quotes from politicians trying to steal money away from the horsesmen, rather than saying that most of the states/provinces that have slots are making bank on these agreements but are trying to make them sound like subsidies. Giving a track 10% of a cut while taking in 90% ...

why doesnt Laurel just write a starter race for horses that have started for 5K or less in the years from 2000-2012 for crying out loud. For the same reason they don't write non winners in 2012 right now. The same reason some tracks run straight 3yo races all year...to fill races. They aren't the o...

I know of someone in Ky that got burned big time by the guy who bought this horse. He left 6 horses in quarentine for months, racked up a huge bill and didnt pay and abandons them. He then thinks he can buy a stud and a bunch of mares at the sale and no one will notice. Hes a rat
