I had the good fortune to meet Mrs Major Hill. Couldn't ask for a kinder mare. I don't recall her being especially big, either. Maybe comes from the sire line.

Jury may still be out on BJ. But based upon what I saw the other night...wow! His 2yo year is history, but IMO he was one of the most talented 2yo's I have seen in a very long time. One of the best 2yo's I've seen in a very long time. Teletimers are far too focused on, mostly by people who don't know what they are looking at. For what I am about to say, the teletimer and the time is meaningless. But, that was the most casual, effortless, and easiest 49 and change mile I have seen in a very long time. Perhaps ever. Second start of the year. Horrendous conditions. Boy, that looked like a very casual, and a very "slow" walk, in the park.

He's 15 for 15 and made almost $2 million.   I'd say he's proved himself already.

Oh, I absolutely agree with you. I was more referring to the brainiacs that say he has to leave Canada, he has to stop ducking, he has to go to the LBJ, and so on. He went to the Meto and the BC. All comers had the chance to tangle with him as a 2yo. They did. And look what happened. Right now, he's the top colt in the class, without question.

What other athletes only compete on their home turf.

We've seen him on a 5/8 and 3/4 mile.

At least one race on a 1/2 and the BigM Pace would be an enjoyable experience to look forward too, and hopefully see his ability on a one mile track more than once.

I really don't get your "brainiacs" statement. 

Sure, horse that travel further distances might be at some more risk of injury too but that's part of the game.

Without us, and our type beau jangles could be pulling a carriage in central F'ing park, or grazing in a field doing nothing, or end up in another animals belly.

I think you need to redirect your hostility.

His people could do whatever the heck they want, we'll watch, this last bs with competition ranging from off odds of 60-199/1 was a gas  ngc3

  • 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".
