You think Monster.com is a site that tells of the exploits of runners like Spectacular Bid and Seattle Slew.

When your girlfriend or wife asks if you like it hot and wet and you respond, "I've never had a good feel for muddy tracks".

When you're in a meeting with your boss and he asks you for your thoughts, and you reply, "I really like the angle of Wolfson/Castro on the turf".

After you see a true stallion go at it in person you'll never look at a naked man again without some disappointment.

The first real vacation (ie, not for a show/event/family gathering) you take in years is to go to Gulfstream Park and meet friends from Derby Trail.

You ditch school in 11th grade on Yom Kipper and B-line to the Big T (Thistledowns) for the first post. Not sure how God thought about it, but had a good day as I remember.

I remember being in 11th grade and cutting school in January to go to Buelah with $20. Thing is, we lived in Detroit.

I schedule my vacation around horse racing and have my calendar marked with big stakes days. Doesn't everyone?

It's bad when you have dreams of getting photo-ed out at the wire
