I heard you ask in the beginning about Honor Code but missed if Shug updated you?

Didn't really ask. Mentioned Honor Code/Top Billing as frame of reference for travails of 3yo campaigning..

Shug also mentioned a Malibu Moon filly he has. That one is out of Shop Again (half to Power Broker) and was purchased for $1 Million at the Keeneland yearling sale. She worked yesterday at Belmont. Love those enhanced workout reports NYRA has on their website now.

when i was younger this stuff used to intrigue me, I would religiously follow the blue bloods from Godolphin, Coolmore, and the other outfits who only buy/breed top shelf. Losing tons of money betting on them first and 2nd out will do that to a guy

Default Unbridled

still remember the look on that red sox pitcher's face who had a piece of Unbridled when after winning something went amiss on the clubhouse turn. it was real subtle, but his look said it all. Must be the worst feeling ever.

Everyone referencing this thread needs to remember that Shug is 3 for his last 75 with 2YO firsters. Security Risk was wildly overbet last Friday and was an ordinary third behind Granny's Kitten. Tread lightly with Shug firsters at the Spa. He hasn't won with one on turf in over five years.

Crazy money on Shug sucked me in(like this was the one ) and instead of crushing the Kitten as planned I ended up boxing the pair and throwing money away.

If Shug ever needed a PR rep and had low standards for the hire, you'd be 1-20 to get the gig, Freddy.

That horse barley ran a step. I think you let Durkin's call fool you. I do expect him to run well up here and possibly win, but not because of his erffort first out.
