Default Unfurl the Flag

What the heck happened? Man, either this horse is just dazzling or just awful. Some days he looks like a new version of Artax and others like a billygoat.

What happened was he had been laid off and was breaking from the rail against a faster horse who was making his debut for a trainer who is 31% with first time acquisitions who had worked 5f in 58:3.

The cracker horse? Wow, he was very impressive... Unfurl the Flag just finished. Who is betting him at 2/1 off that kind of lay off against a horse named after one of the most useful snacks ever made? You can put peanut butter on them, fresh cheese, a little exotic jam, a meat spread or just enjoy em plain.

You can feed 'em to a dog(if your out of his dogfood.)Other than that,that pasty crap is useless.

I still say that if the horse was ready at all,then that greedy Nakatani would have been attached to his back like with glue.I mean think about it.If the horse wins without him,then Court gets the ride in the stakes they have in mind.Now,Nakatani will get the call to "get the magic back" in the stakes.

Unless its a stakes race with poodles & gerbils in it I say he has to run in a few more allowance races before he aims for a stakes. That was an awful mess out there. Feel bad for anyone who bet their kid's college money on him. Anyone know if he beat the tractor? They took it off the screen just when they were about to show it.
