Not some venomous, blathering vendetta against O'Neill, or Reddam or Milkshakes etc etc..who cares about the human side of it...Those of you who are against the horse for the above reasons are robbing yourselves of the possible GOOD memories of THIS horse that may lie beyond...It's the HORSE, stupid...or if you prefer, it's the stupid HORSE...either way...win or lose,don't rob yourselves of the memory....it's what Horseracing is all about anyways, right ? Memories ??

I prefer it to be all about the mammories, but that is just me.

By the way, speaking of blathering.....
