Default A slow news day

Who would have thought that the impending retirement of Magna Graduate would have resulted in the Form dedicating 2/3 of it's front page to a (very nice) photo of him.
While Barbara's photo is lovely, it must be a slow news day to dedicate that much space to a horse that has probably not gotten that much publicity throughout his 4 years on the track. He shares the front page with a story by Marty McGee about Romans retirning Fri Guy to the track off the 2007 BC Turf. The ML on Fri Guy is 12-1.

MG was pretty decent at the end of his 3yo year when he won the Clark.
since then there hasnt been alot to write home about.

Be interesting to see how Fri Guy runs off the long lay off, showing all of 2 works.
