Are you two joking?


B is a 4yo male … Z a 6yo female.

B already owns a couple big scores at CD … Z hasn't raced there yet.

B showed a lot of grit while taking down top-ranked QR in the biggest open contest so far this year.


He's clearly the early fav for the BCC at this point...

It's called playing both sides of the fence.

Yawn.

It was mildly shocking to read something written by him that I completely agreed with and was pretty well thought out.

Of course it's a "clever" dodge for when she loses.

Final quarter in :23.60 … breezing, no less … galloped out seven in 1:26.20 according to DRF.com


Like my man CSC says … looks like John is starting to 'tighten the screws'...

Does Blame dance before his races? Does he have songs written about him? Most importantly, is he sensitive about the feelings of others?

zenyatta could win by open lengths every race, but she doesn't want to hurt the other horses' feelings, so she lets them lead for most of the race and politely passes them at the very end. Such a caring horse is not going to let her army of fans down by losing the biggest race of all. She has all those old ladies, the people who showed up at Hot Springs International, the guy who chanted "Zenyatta" for 18 hours straight at Del Mar, and others who live vicariously through her to think about.

When zenyatta wins HOY this year, the Mosses need to invite the one person who is symbolic of all their fans to the awards ceremony. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z-A1ps_m7Jk

Wow, I would have guessed Smooth Operator would be much younger than that.
