Default Nicky Boy SCR'd from both Calder spots
Mercifully, no Nicky Boy in either the Rooney or Azalea...

Any story that you can tell us in regards to what is going on and why they enter this horse? Are they looking for a free table on big days or something? Owner like hardcore drugs?

Tom.. It's as crazy a story as in anyone's memory. The woman that owns is a major loon. Welsch said his conversation with her was incomprehensible. She frequently has no idea where the horse even is. It's a truly bizarre situation. Mike wasn't sure but was confident that Calder would try to exclude the poor thing today in the best interest of horse, other entrants and bettors.

She sounds like a real Riot.

I'm glad he scratched.
With me, there is always about a 10% chance I would have somehow talked myself into using him in a horizontal wager.

Damn, now I'll never know the answer to this.....

As for running her seemingly hopelessly overmatched maiden in a graded stakes, Solange said "When the race is finished I'll tell everybody the full story, but I have faith in Nicky and she is going to make Miami proud."

I really would love to know the thought process. Maybe Byk can interview her and coax it out of her.

You Have to love the Reason given for the scratch, the connections did not have all the proper paperwork completed on her health certificate to allow her to ship in and race in Florida.

Make Miami proud? Maybe joining up with Wade, Lebron & Bosh?
