I think his races are pretty planned out at this point , the American handicap the end of this month and then the Arlington million again.

I'm not trying to make anyone look bad & believe me, I'm no "expert" and proud of it! You can learn a lot from this board though, just tread lightly & watch out for the sharks...

You may be onto something but I really believe that they all thought that he couldnt win so they would just let the old guy have his fun and then they would all swarm him at the end.

Actually, you did. I deleted the post because you scared me. You don't scare me anymore. Oh, and I guess I messed up your handle. Sorry about that. That's what I call you in the comfort of my own home.

Thanks for the advice. I have been trying to remain under the radar, but sometimes I forget and situations like this occur

Who knows... sometimes we can all come across as the 'Big Bad Wolf' to newer members. It just takes some time to get acclimated.

My first post was a comment about Nicanor, and you made a reply about my abilities to identify sarcasm. I wanted to reply back, but the whole exchange "scared" me, so I just deleted my messages. Today's exchange reminded me of that day, and I got a little carried away.

You don't scare me anymore. I find your posts and the majority of posts very informative, interesting and quite often very amusing.

Have a good evening.

Good point. I have been reading the forum for a while now, and I'm not as nervous about posting as I was in the beginning. I spend more time reading the posts however. There are some people on this forum who are quite pleasant, some who are interesting, some who are just plain BRUTAL, and some who are certifiable. No one involved in this conversation falls into the last two categories

to Tinny it doesnt matter he just enjoys running .

Or is it that he enjoys leaving the whipper-snappers and doubters all shaking their heads saying "How did he DO that?"hehe Happy horses make great race horses. As far as the Million goes.....blah, blah, he stole it, blah, pace was to slow, blah. He and Victor cant help that the other jocks fell asleep can they? ..........<Tinny and V, galloping off "See ya next year suckers>
