Hey, Brockguy - Saturday at the Curragh

[my miss storm cat]

Thought i should take a moment, stop jumping up and down, and tell you that HE is entered! This has to be an easy prep for the Arlington Million, right?

It's only a Group 3 but HE probably needs to gain back his confidence.

Anyway if you go, please blow him tons of kisses when no one is looking. (Or in front of everyone..... that's your call).

So excited!

The #1? You're calling my favorite horse in the world by a number? No! His name is Ace, and he shall follow in the footsteps of Powerscourt and win the Arlington Million.

(There won't be any odds on him..... heavy, heavy favorite).

And his jockey will follow the footsteps of a crook right to the big house.

GO # 1 Yea get you some!!!!

Oh fine..... at least you're rooting for him.

Go ACE!

Honestly, this horse breaks my heart over and over again. God, I love him.

Second? in THIS field? Very depressing until I remembered that in his two preps for the Arlington Million Powerscourt was 4th (to Bandari) and 2nd (to Imperial Stride). There's still hope.....

Hopefully AOB doesn't change his mind about sending him over..... he does well here.

Good boy!
