Did the Green Monkey race?

[2Hot4TV]

I forgot to check to see if the Monkey started this weekend. Did he make his first start?

[sumitas]

He ws not entered at Belmont.

Thanks. The guys at work saw the news cast that featured the Monkey and his auction price. They all want to know what happens with the Green Monkey, yet they have no idea who Barbaro was.

this goes against my better judgment, but:

actually, he did race this past weekend. they carded a special race for him at the end of the day, and nobody ran against him. it was basically your garden variety walkover. he ran the walkover so flippin fast, nobody even saw him, though his race was picked up by seismographs at cal tech.

Really it'd be win-win for pro and anti-Green Monkey enthusiasts. In a race like that he'd come in first and dead last at the same time.

The Green Monkey and Rags to Riches in the same day. Could be the largest non-Belmont Stakes on track attendance in decades.
