Thanks. I was hoping he was fit enough and speculating that he would handle the turf. Zimmerman rode him well. The horse was really tired afterwards, showed some heart in the stretch.

Ramsey Zimmerman?

If so, you have a jockey that LOVES fights, guy is a machine and afraid of nothing. HUGE FAN when he stays out of trouble

Just wanted to thank you for the PM telling me he couldn't lose.

Don't worry, I didn't tell a soul here, just like you said.

Not a bad payday at all.
$23,400 for the win plus the money you had on him.
The exacta wasn't shabby at all.

I have to wonder.. Did he win because he was the best or was it the post
The pick 3 was 5-5-5 for crying out loud.






Great now I got a Thunder Kiss '65 earworm

Five , Five - Five

Yeah he cost me the Late Pick 4. Keyed the 1 with Robbie A. up. Pick 4 paid 14 grand. Still banging my head on the screen.

congratulations cannon! didnt have a ticket on yea today but ramseys made me a little bit of money since hes started riding@FG! he had a real nice fall meet and is hot as a pistol right now. like scav mentioned no doubt he very talented and can ride as long as he stays outta trouble. i was very skeptical when i heard he was going to the FG considering the amount of partying that goes on there. ramsey rode at keeneland when he was 16 and as most know ran in2 a lotta trouble and ended up at a little place called fairmount. nice 2 see him resurrecting his career, hes still very young asnd may wind up on the big circuit 1 day. lol yes he does like to fight also, i remember when he first started riding he picked fights with tha guid and ray sibille which were bad moves for him. im rooting for him lol even tho his agent wont let him ride for our barn

I had the tri in this race. I also had the 9 horse at 25-1 in the third spot. But he lost by a head. The 5 was awesome. Cant believe he went off at 18-1. The sire has like a great % of turfers.

Boy, better not use a jockey's name and the word "machine" in the same sentence. No Billy Patin references..

Congrats to Cannon Shell for the win. Brutal beat for me, who had a big win bet on the 3 at 11-1. Simon's horse just didn't want to get passed (or the Haw invader is a hanger).
