I did read somewhere they are giving away Rags pins to the first 12,000 at Belmont today. Think they will have any left over?

He's not green and he doesn't look like a monkey! His owner must of turned green when they paid 16,000,000.00 for him. I'm playing the #1 to beat the monkey.

Looks like the 1 and 2 have heard about him and are even scared...

ALostTexan 09-15-2007 01:39 PM

Absolutely nothing in him. Unbelieveable...

He just needs to do that 3,077 more times and he makes back his purchase price.

ALostTexan 09-15-2007 01:42 PM

Look, he will be ready for the BC Classic in October, and if they will bump the purse up to $31,989,600 then they will break even...

I don't know about anyone else but that was hilarious to me. Watching the rider asking out of the gate and going to the whip on the turn. Great.

Like they say in the stock market,

Bulls make money
Bears make money
But pigs get slaughtered.

And I think we know what Tabor is.
