Well, skunked in my bets. That's the way it goes. The upside:
1) she demonstrated, once again, that she's running at the level where she belongs,
2) she confirmed her ability to run on an artificial surface, thereby adding to her versatility and value,
3) she picked up a few grand more to pay the bills,
4) I now have a better chance of seeing her first win since Saratoga is within my range.
All in all, not a bad day.
Congrats everyone, and, once again, thanks Chuck and Steve for the trip.

She's the root of all evil........and was probably the sole reason why Sightseek had problems with her airline today.

Trust me, she deserves it.

Welcome back from the grave. I'm not crazy how the TVG Fantasy is set up this time around...

well, if it was all her fault, then fire away! maybe you can make the next one sightseek!

i hope to make at least one more of her races this year...but we'll see. we're going to be out of pocket a good bit for hospital bills, etc, and not looking like tony will get back to work til september....we'll see!

I was kind of digging it actually----but, I messed up pretty bad last weekend. I had my little brothers bachelor party and forgot about all about Dream Rush. I just wish they showed the number of moves people have left on the scoreboard.

Sumwon ran a great race....Can't wait to witness her first victory for the Dee Tee Stable @ the Spa. Looking forward to making the trip and meeting everyone opening weekend.

lost in the last 6 strides!

willie told us she was just abit short today but she gave all she had.
no one wanted the lead so he took it. took her back to rest her but didn't want the #2 to get to far away, so they went after her.
willie LOVES our horse! told us he'd go anywhere to ride her!
another great day with the DT crew.

We'll get her to love the game yet

I was a little disappointed, but still proud! Runs her race everytime, now if she could only change her leads sooner.

Great post, Paul! This is great for everyone on this board... I was so excited, I could barely stand it and I don't even own a share.

one of the group saw the head on view and she started to stagger abit as she aproached the line.

Deb, kinda ironic that Green Door is by Danzig isn't it?

The Bid · #**215** 07-11-2007, 08:43 PM

Who was staggering, someone in the partnership when they thought she was going to win, or Sumone because she hung on that lead?

I know Ive felt my knees get a little weak right before they cross the line.

Of course not, because it's pretty clear that you have some weird vendetta against the stable. My hunch is that had she won you would've been railing about how she got a clear lead or how she was "supposed to win" or some bullshit like that.

that much is clearly obvious to everyone, and it is so tiresome now.

geeker2 · #**217** 07-11-2007, 08:50 PM

Congrads you guys/girls! She even keyed the pervert exacta (6-9)

just got back home from spending the afternoon out at AP, meeting lots of new people, watching Sumwons race, so close again.

I just have to say that you guys have latched on to such a nice one here, you all should be real proud even though she has so far only placed for you. She is real game and as you all know ran again today what could have easily been a winning race.

I have to mention something Wille said after the race that made my day.
He said in the jocks room before the race that Douglas told him "you don't have to worry about my horse". So Willie shoots back "I wasn't worried about your horse".

That was the Pletcher horse, the 8, which Sumwon left in the dust. Willie seems like a great guy who really wanted to win for the partners today and seems to be having a blast with it.

yeah i know.....

well, if we had to lose to one, i'm glad it was one of his.
