Don't blame it on the jockey. Both horses had the same jockey? Sliding on the parking hardly constitutes a reason to scope. Doesn't add up. Maybe you're just saying that both scoped and came back clean? Kinda like a way to re-assure people that all is well with the poly? |
Eurocherub lives here or is from here, he knew too many things that only someone unlucky enough to live here would know...That's about the only thing he's told the truth about...

You guys can have the last word because I am exhausted. And plus I think there are better things to discuss. But it was a good debate (for the most part).

I lost it at the grocery store last week because the people ahead of me in line at the express checkout had like 30 items as i stood behind them with the DRF only. I started talking to myself out loud and saying, "Yep, I didn't have anything else to do today anyway, I wanted to hang out at Price Chopper all day long". People behind me started chuckling, so then I say "yep, oh good you have coupons, lotsa coupons!! Swell Maam!!!" Laughter is louder. Then they pull out a checkbook to write a check as well so I say "geez thats great, now you are paying by check!!! WONDERFUL!!! Did you maybe forget to grab anything? You should go and get it, we don't mind waiting!!!". Cashier loses it and is like shaking and barks into the microphone "Please open another register!!!!!!!!!" Laughter is echoing throughout the buliding. Manager comes over and even he breaks into laughter as I start humming the jeopardy theme as she fills out the check. |

C'mon Euro. The trainer calls you after the race and says, "Horse A ran in the 4th and had such and such trip and finished so and so". And then the other trainer calls and says, "Horse B ran in the 8th and had such and such trip and finished so and so". Maybe it's the same trainer -- doesn't really matter. And then at the end of the conversation the trainer(s) says, "By the way we scoped both horses and they came back fine". And you don't ask why? Or the trainer never mentions why he/she scoped both horses? Scoping horses after a race isn't normally routine -- especially at a place like Turfway. Don't blow smoke OK? |

You do that -- you let me know. Because I am interested in hearing . . . I didn't appreciate that maybe your ownership was through participating in a club/syndication. Even in most of those -- there are expenses beyond "a one time flat rate fee" if such expenses are necessary. And I'm not knocking that way of ownership. In fact, I think it's one of the best things the industry has going for it. I wish the general public knew more about it. It would be many more $$$ flowing into racing. |
ANother eased and vanned off on a synthetci by the way yesterday. Blind Harry. Race 6. He was claimed too.
No I'm not pleased, not at all. But if its gonna be sunshine propaganda on one side there ought to be some rain reported as well. |

Its much better to buy a 10% stake in a few horses and spread around the risk than to buy 100% of one horse and have all the eggs in one basket. Zillionaires don't have to worry about this, but most folks do. I commend anyone who swings the bat, no matter how big or small their investment stake is. |
