I lost the pick 3 because of him! I had the 5th and 6th races. I didn't have the Tin Man though. I had Right Special and Kip Deville :(

Didn't see the race- what happened to Kip?

Well I think the mush was on. The TVG analysts were calling him the best turf miler in the country repeatedly. Thanks to them I went deep in the race to start the pick 4.

Caught behind a wall of horses with no where to go.

Kip was behind a wall and never had a place to run. I also think that he might of hit the top of his form cycle in his last win. Alittle time away from the track is in order.

congrats, it must have been a special feeling. :)

Great....
 
Performance from The Tin Man, he is fun to watch! Kip Deville just got trapped in by a wall of horses, had no place to go. Talamo on Willow O Wisp improved that one to a 3rd, and Get Funky ran a pretty good one too. But The Tin Man was much the best!

I do not think he had room to split anything. In fact he tried to go outside any there was nothing there either. Mig just put him in a black hole with no where to go.

Well then you and Crystal must have been a blubbering pair. :D What a man!!! Some horses just have IT, and he has IT!!

MaTH716 05-28-2007 09:35 PM

No I have not. From the regular replay it looked like he had nowhere to go. Where did you see the head on? Where did he have the hole?
