Ravel
 

I thought this horse was going to be decent (stop laughing! :mad: ) and put him in my virtual stable, but forgot about him. I've been getting steady work notifications for a few weeks now. It looks like he is back after a 2 year layoff at age 6. Is he still with Pletcher?

I think I ripped him a few years back, after I decleared him the Derby winner. Im sure Drugs is on it already though.

I had futures on both the champion Itsallaboutthechase and the one and only he's-moving-like-a-tremendous-machine-esque Really Indian.

Pavo was my Derby horse one year.

I don't judge. :D

That could be a very fun thread- a "What the hell was I thinking?" Derby Pick.

Great Hunter:o

Maybe Ravel can participate in an overhyped, overrated race with Imperial Council, and Mr. Fantasy.

NT

Mr. Fantasy smokes those 2, clear pace advantage.

I had a futures bet on Superfly.

According to the workout sheet, Ravel is trained by Mark Glatt now.

Thanks!

I was going to mention that, but figured it was kinder to let you tell them yourself.


I made a number of different wagers in 2004, but remember that some of that money went to Borrego. It produces the same emotions in me as the memory of how I zoned out during the second grade play and didn't say my line until all the other kids on stage yelled at me.

Mr Fantasy did actually win a stake or two and is back in training for a 4yo debut. He hasn't proven himself a total dud yet.

I was a big fan...:D

If I'm remembering this correctly I repeatedly lost on him and then gave up when he was in the Pacific Classic. Knowing there was no way he could do it twice in a row I left him off my tickets in the JCGC.

I drank the Saarland kool aid.

Well, at least you and I have better taste in music (my fellow Killers fan) than we do in Derby picks. :)

Oh, Borrego... oh, Lawyer Ron... oh, Colonel John... oh, whomever I picked last year (blocked from memory)... oh, whomever I'll pick this year...
