This race is going to be analyzed in more excruciating detail than any Derby prep on this board

[Riot]

Unbelievable - in December the idea is floated, in February Chuck is buying a horse at F-T, and April she's running at Kee .... I hope she runs safe, and just had a good race, rating kindly, and making a good strong move - icing on the cake if she gets some money for Chuck! (geesh, her shipping bills alone ....)

Okay, I want to hear the REAL story of how you guys decided to form this partnership.

Kasept and Hooves are sitting around, eating pie.

Hooves: Let's buy a race horse.
Kasept: Too expensive to buy a race horse.
Hooves: Hey! Derby Trail could buy a race horse!
Kasept: Good idea! That would be fun! Let's call Simon. We'll bribe him with pie!

[Unstable]

LMAO - Yeah, I can see that happening with Steve and Hooves and the pie-bribing.

I am so psyched about this coming Wednesday that I don't think I'll be able to concentrate on the races this week-end.

Well, maybe not, but I am really, really excited.

[southerndutch]

I'll be there. I'm sitting in Section E,Row A,seat 2. Hope to meet everybody in the paddock.

[Round Pen]

OUCH The first time the DTer's run there horse I can't whole heartedly pull for you guys. I wish you all the luck in the world and a safe trip, BUT that is where I have to stop we are running one in there that I have had all winter here in Florida. Quiet Action wintered here in Ocala and has been at Keeneland for a week or two now. I think she is ready to fire a big one.

Easy solution. Scratch her for the good of the team. LOL
Just hope they both come back healthy.
Good Luck

She is the "horse to beat"...with that said, hopefully Sumwon will be the one who does that

[pmacdaddy]

Here is the Sumwon's write up in the "Closer Look" from DRF:

Speedy filly has been in front after the opening quartermile in each of her last four races and is certainly the one to catch today; unfortunately the presence fof Christies Treasure, Quite Action and Nola Star will make the front end a rather busy place to be; gets a class test in addition to a turf test.

Really looking forward to Wed...

How exciting, and good luck, will be watching your filly, and you've got Leparoux - are you going to be there?

Can we hold you down and put a DT hat on you?

Chuck !!!
