You can't win any races if they can't walk the next day.

Im not saying Adagio is crippled. He will never be worth more than where hes running. Those guys are busted probably need to pay off a couple armanis. 15 seems reasonable. SOmebody coulud have fun with that horse and be hard to get hurt.

Bid, the first half of your post seems to contradict the 2nd. From it's last couple of races, the horse would appear to be worth a lot more that $15K. To be worth $15K, there have to be some significant issues. When there are significant issues, buyers can indeed get hurt.

The scratch probably saved me from a losing bet. Formal King won with ease.

You really never took the time to try to listen to what I said.

Whatever. I NEVER focused on the mid-atlantic. NEVER.
I focused on the much bigger picture.

Hes worth what he can win for Dunbar no more or less. 15k is no major hit, if he is a complete cripple he should be able to win back for that on class alone

Lets set it up then, I think PG is game. You seem confident, you giving me 2-1 on him? I will bet my life, my house, my socks and the shampoo bottle I jerked off into.

Heres the thing and this is the first time Im telling anyone this story. When PG came up here and spent a few days with me and we had the man date and ****, some dude picked a fight with me and PG handled it for me. He was like a mixture of Andre the Gaint and Shawn Micheals.... Hence him calling himself my bodyguard from time to time.
