1, but i never said he wasn't htat calibur, in fact I said he WAS of that calibur. he has proven that already. but I don't think he's better than war pass, etched or maybe even el gato malo. I really like him alot


when indian blessing crossed that wire you were the first person I thought about. honesty I think what you are trying to say she isn't a 9 furlong filly. and I would agree with you on that but so what? most filly races aren't written at 9 furlongs so what does it matter. that's my entire point..

Pyro ran his final 5/16 in about :28.20 That's unheard of on most dirt tracks. This is a very serious horse for the TC.

Will they stick with Bridgmo???

Last year we got the 5W tour from Albarado on Curlin. This year we could get the choke and blocked.

Hi Ill,
Thanks for bringing that up, in all my posts I meant 5/16ths everytime I said 3/16ths. I'm gonna see if I can fix that:>) That horse you mentioned of Violettes had an easy win, another good call ill :>) TJ

I was talking to Illbred as he* (thanks again Sam) made reference to this horse. Just was acknowledging the fact the horse won. So why was your unnecesary comment posted. Read my posts concerning Pyro, I know what he did yesterday :roll: TJ

Hard to tell on here


Im not disputing what you said, or what anyone said on either horse. Just my opinion on them both.

Yeah....whatever Ascot said. *noddin' my head up and down*

Pyro didn't beat a great field in LA, but he was the only horse to make a run at War Pass in the BC Juvie - he's got a touch of class. I just wish he had a better rider than "choke 'em to death" Shaun Bridgmo - he is so the wrong rider for this horse. More horses spit the bit under the "Bridgmo Choke" than for any other rider in the country.

I was simply acknowledging Ill's post from another thread about that Violette horse. I like his opinion and have seen him be right on with price horses.....OK not this one but the horse ran a heck of a race at GP in that goo the other day. TJ
