Race 2 Woodbine 1 horse, He weighs 274 pounds. Would you bet a cannon ball like that on any race?

The horse is named after his son who died in 2023. Maybe you should give this one a pass.

Looked pretty good at 20-1 last week, missing by 1.5 length's coming on, fin 3rd, placed 2nd...if it wasn't a big handicap for the horse, would be great for HR.

It gets factored into the wagering decisions.

If he jumped off and a top 3 guy gets on and wins by 10...is another way to honor his son...just a horse and a name, but the sentiment is understood.

Look what Tony Soprano did for obese, balding men...some personality and balls and guys are still hitting home runs out of their league's parks.  ngc3

Jimmy and his family are all the salt of the earth and excellent horsemen.  Congrats Jimmy... I'm sure this one is extra special.

good for him
 perhaps there is some learning in the training method of having to pull around a guy who is almost 300lbs
just wait till he puts on a catch driver who weighs 160 lbs

That move, from winning a maiden to winning first start in n/w of 2, has never been seen before and even made The Cheery boys fall of their rockers. Happy for Jimmy though with all the meaning behind that horse and all.
