well i didnt getta chance to give jake peppermints, cuz he surprisingly got claimed! be4 today the guy who owned the horse tim claimed him for 4, we moved him up to 6 first off ran 4th, and today run 4th again for 6. jake basically paid his bills and made the owner 2 grand profit in a little less then a month! not bad coming out ahead like that especially with a bottom claimer. im absolutely shocked he got claimed today cuz where do you go with him here? you cant drop him to 4 again now be4 the end of the meet cuz he was claimed and you gotta rise him up to 8k if youre gonna run him back be4 the end of the meet and he just run two 4ths well beaten for 6. good lookin horse like i said and lofty expectations were put on him in the KEE sale a couple years ago when sold for almost a half mil! id actually like to see this horse cut back to 1 turn and get in a race loaded with speed so he can make his 1 late run!
after the race when he was brought back into the paddock and the new connections took him away i yelled adios jake and the guy walkin him looked at me like i was nuts LOL! hes a crazy horse in the stall and almost impossible to catch in there but ill miss him!
