There are stallions out there with several crops on the ground who've been on this earth as long as Better Talk Now.

Poor old Brass Hat. He used to be one of the best dirt horses in the world (see Donn H and Dubai World Cup finishes). Hasn't been the same since he came back from Dubai and the last couple of injuries. I realize he is the only Big Horse in a small stable and they want him to still be a stakes horse but he may not have it anymore. I've loved him since he won the Rushaway as a maiden (had him in the CITGO/Pick 6 contest), I just hope he will come out of this race safe and with some dignity intact.

Enough... You're so preposterous and full of crap that I can't help myself any more. Some dignity? If you actually had any real interest or knowledge or watched the races, you might actually have noted his wide rallying try in the Munoz last out beaten less than two lengths by Proudinsky and Nownownow that earned a 97 Beyer, his best yet on the lawn in his 6th grass race.

He hasn't been the same since he came back from Dubai? You mean other than winning the '07 Mass Cap (98 Beyer); running a just-missed second in the '07 Clark (102 Beyer); a 4th beaten 3L in the '08 Donn (102 Beyer); and mid-90 Beyer 3rds-5ths in 5 graded stakes since the Donn? In the actual real racehorse world, he is the EXACT same horse more or less at 8 as he was at 6 and 7.

I'll let Buff Bradley know how concerned you are about his family and the gelding's dignity. Brass Hat looks terrific and Bradley said hours ago he expects a big effort in the Elkhorn.

He's been a good warrior, one of my favs also. I couldn't help but put a few on him today, sometimes the heart wins out over the head.
