Stephen Foster is This Saturday

[Kasept]

Mike brings up a great point.. Rupert Pupkin has a rather close tie to Buzzard's Bay, and Derby Trailers should throw their support his way for the Foster!!

Also get the feeling that there's some real anticipation for this card from the masses! And that's terrific..

[hoovesupsideyourhead]

buzzards is a nice one,,ill back wild desert that day..

[alysheba4]

the buzzard runs those off there feet....... remember the hat is comming off a tough dubai race. total throw out.

[sumitas]

One of a handful of the fastest thoro numbers ever given was to Mineshaft for his loss in that race. Robbie 8 wide Albarado. The only horse as fast as Mineshaft was Ghostzapper....Perfect Drift has never run a race as fast as that again, by the way. Knocked him out for a career.

If thats the case, RUPERT, I put $150 down to win on Buzzards that day last year in the SA Derby. Big pay day there, so thanks

I had no connection to BB at all at that time. He had a different owner and trainer back then.

Rupert is smarter than I am. I thought at the time he was purchased that takingone off Mullins would not work out, especially at that price. Obviously Rupert is quite a sharp guy.

I like to remain anonymous, so I will not confirm or deny a connection to the horse. I will say that it was not my idea to buy the horse. It looks like it was a great buy, but I cannot take credit for it. I like getting credit if I deserve it, but I do not deserve it for BB.

I'll take Brass Hat in this one. BB was lucky in the Oaklawn Handicap with the winner trapped down on the inside behind horse's that day. We'll see if Brassy can come back from the Desert and win unlike most others who go over and come back lame or out of gas.

I'm not sure BB got lucky in the Oaklawn Handicap. He set really fast fractions and won the race by 6 1/2 lengths. If that's your definition of luck, then I guess he was lucky. I think that BB was probably the best horse that day. He won by 6 1/2 lengths. I was not aware that any of the other horses had 6 1/2 lengths of trouble.
