Your an idiot

He won his last race in 53.3 and could have been put on ongait or preferred and brought decent money

The group sacrificed money to do right by the horse.
Agreed.

Anyone with half a brain that saw him his last couple of starts had to wonder why are they torturing the old fella! It would have been a travesty for him lose his life on the track after the career he had.

if you're gonna beat drums for horses that shouldn't be on the track I suggest you look elsewhere. I am no big fan of the horse's connections but there are FAR worse cases to point to than this.

If you look at the numbers the money he made did not cover his purchase price and expenses and I was told that the retirement ceremony was strictly publicity for the Stable arranged by Amac. The stable is a disaster for the majority of horses Amac has purchased over $50K.

Yes some of his purchases are real head scratchers. The Greatest Ending buy tops the list. Didn’t the previous owners tak a huge haircut.

How about Atlas Hanover...bought just because Amac wanted to drive in the Jug. He wants his stable to be like Burkes and also thinks he can drive with the big boys...all with other peoples money

I think it is so nice that they are giving the horse back to Menary. I’m sure Santa will feel much better when he is back on Dave’s drugging program

  • Sweet: The fact of the matter is the win pool on Beau Jangles was I believe a negative pool,  his real odds not 1/9 but 1/99.  Enough already, we're the real patrons of thius F'ing sport, many of us also care for these animals despite the best don't want drugs and whipping, abuse.  Competition yes!

  • Lockedin with Pace: Robust Hanover was a very small horse driven by William O'Donnell. In fact the late Stan Bergstein used to refer to him as the "little peanut".
