FD runs his race everytime. His race just isn't that good.

Monday comes around and Romans saying First Dude to the PA Derby which prompts "Trickmeister had a bad workout this morning and he will NOT be entered in the PA Derby"

So conclusion would be if First Dude is going to a race then Trickmeister won't be.
I can't stand IEAH either but c'mon, there is a lot of money out there...you aren't not going to enter b/c of First Dude.

Admiral Alex is going to roll in the Jamaica. Just ask his trainer.

Why not just make a race called the Trailer Parx State Grand Slam Classic - make it worth $2.4 million - and run it at Parx one year, LAD the next, Hooiser the next, and Remington the next in that rotation.
That is sheer genius and should not be ignored.

Keep this up forever, because I said no one should say he has no chance. Remember thats all I really said. You are one of the people who has touted First Dude multiple times. That horse has been a toss on the win end for me every time he has ran since March

I can tell you are on the verge of cracking again and I promised Steve I wouldn't go there anymore. It's not about me and you. We're having discussions here.

I've touted First Dude twice as far as I can remember. Before the Preakness, where he was 2nd at a big price and before the Belmont. I used him in the Travers, but bet another horse.

Either way, this has nothing to do with anything.
