seems lkike a lifetime ago
 

Did he ever run at Santa Anita? Grass horse? There was a horse with that name or close to it. He had a huge neck. Veins popping out everywhere. I got off my horse to bet him. He finished up the track and my horse won....


It's hard to say. It has been a very long time

He won some race in AZ or something for Paulson and had everyone thinking Derby. He's grass bred and I think he was better on that surface. He must be 8 or something.

im just surprised theyre bringing the horse back next year@ age9. heres some more info

At 4: Won Belmont Breeders' Cup H. (G2); 2nd Jim Murray Memorial H.

Playa, come on, they are not bringing this horse back, not a chance.......It was just incorrect

Simon Bray was the trainer

well johns call ran through age 10 and won stakes on the lawn through then, he won 2 g1's@9 and was 3rd in the bc i believe that year

This horse went to Stud FIVE years ago.

TRust me, I would LOVE to see him again, I liked the horse alot, but realism kicks in......

He isn't in the stallion registar so maybe not at stud

I'll email TVG and see if Bray will answer

Possible, but they would have known that right away. 9 years old, and not raced in 4 years, that is a pretty serious comeback if you ask me

BC TURF HERE WE COME

the horse has breezed yet again

You sure he's not a Quarter Horse? Equibase doesn't notate the difference and I was getting notifications for Ghostzapper after he retired. Lot of QH have big TB names.

Nevermind that. I tried adding the name to my stable, and the TB is the only one that comes up. Interesting...

Most important thing in this thread is that you can run 7 and a half consecutive 8 minute miles in a wet/fast downtown track.
