Has done this now four times in his career with off the board fiascos in the Clark, Oaklawn H. and Cornhusker, as well as Saturday..


I think it was Mr. Umphrey that needed to be reshod.

Really, I wasnt aware of that. Thanks for the info, I know he is a nice horse and for him to run that bad was not good. And I have had quite a few horses pout and refuse to work. And yes it was Mr. Umphrey that had to be reshod.
