Another casualty to be blamed on the synthetics, perhaps?

GS is a dirt track.

Yes, I know. But nowdays, any little or major mishap is blamed on the synthetic surfaces, so why not this instance?

Well, because it was run on a turf course not synthetic or dirt.

I guess I did not get the point across. I was just being sarcastic.

Race breakdowns have cut down dramatically at Santa Anita this last week. I'm sure that the folks at Magna are delighted - how about a round of applause for cushion?

Wow that's the first Lil E Tee mare I think I've seen with racing offspring.

We had a nice Lil E Tee filly when I worked for Charlsie named Petunia. She was 17 hands and very kind, she was a good turf horse for us.

Buckingham Farm owned her, Eddie and Binnie Houghten. She has babies out there..............
