They employ Harty and Suroor.

Nuff said.

I doubt those two have 1000 functioning brain cells between them.

That's like saying PG1985 is a great bettor because he's cashed a few tickets.

Please tell me you aren't serious about that post.

If you are serious, that is epic stupidity.

I read somewhere that he was suppose to go to the Super Derby however someone made the decision that he should not run any 2 turn races this year Makes 0 sense but thats GoDolphin. In fact he wasnt even nominated to the PA Derby just the Super Derby

or maybe this field scared him off

Super Derby Probables

Golden Moka-- Might go to PA Derby
Apart
Coyote Legend
Distorted Economy
Monsignor
Hurricane Ike
Wando Redd
Ricky Tick

Do owners not realize they are paying a nice purse for the race?

Has Ricky Tick turned into a racehorse? I took him off my stable list when he was a slob but he has had to turn it around to be in a race like this. He is a 3/4 brother to our horse, Prospect Knight, who is running at Philly on Saturday in a maiden claimer 40k, with a FIFTY ONE THOUSAND DOLLAR pot!!

PP's for the Super Derby nominations

Nope, he hasn't turned into one yet. Connections were way unrealistic after he broke his maiden at FG when they didn't sell him for reportedly high 6 figures, and continue to run in bad spots, he is probably a high level claimer.

It's been quite a year for Godolphin. They have ZERO Graded Stakes wins in the US and just seven total wins...and only 4 Group 1 wins overseas.....three of which were in Germany. $12 million in purses worldwide.

Honestly, that would be like the Yankees winning 37 games.

They won the Presque Isle Mile this year. There's not much more you can ask for after you've accomplished that.
