Title: Big Ranger
Post by: TimTimTimbo on August 05, 2026, 10:45:35 PM

I love watching good horses and as discussed here when Gillespie lost the horse, I found this article and the owners cam out and took the horse without even a phone call

Fuck those assholes, I hope he gets beat

I'm rooting for Dex but I think Endurance is going to be really tough

Good trainer, but he insisted on driving, Another Matt Bax, I never understood these Trainers who insist on driving while the real drivers watch.

Well if that was the reason and they told him they wanted a good one to drive then I can understand.
