One day at Monmouth, I was upstairs watching them come through the tunnel. The jock on #5
tugged his right ear lobe and some guy below me ran toward the windows. I bet the horse.
He won.

Another time at Naragansett, some swell in a caddy whispered in the ear of the old geezer
parking guy. The old guy ran for the windows. I followed him and bet the horse.
He won.

I always look for geezer parking guys running and jocks tugging their ear lobes, but for insurance I use thorograph.

I cashed Sea Hero (and the ex & tri) because I saw him get shut off at the rail full of run in the Bluegrass- the same move that won the KD. Bless my sorry eyesight!

Fox news just carried the story. Monday, O\'Reilly will demand an investigation.

I was at Arlington the day Dr. Fager splashed home under all that weight. Somebody has been faster in the last 35 years? ( And, the weed WAS better.)

In addition to Nearco, Tesio got Niccolo Dellarca from Nogara. He was high class and is in FC\'s pedigree. Imagine how great Tesio could have been if he had studied figs instead of pedigrees.

What I didn\'t mention is that the people who think pedigree counts crossed both teresina and nogara in the back generations of FC\'s mares. Look at Cherished Moments 5x.
A guy named Tesio used those names to some good effect and the Darby Dan people tried to further the plan.

both EM and FC descend from the same great stamina influence- Teresina, by Tracery.

I\'m an infrequent user who\'s unable at present to access the complete product, so I use the analysis as a filter for my own opinions. I find it useful. But, I don\'t use it the way I used Lawton\'s tout sheet in the 50\'s.

Before the Derby, I told friends that WE would be tough if he got the 1st 3/4s in abt.
1:12. In the Preakness, he must have been abt. 8 lengths faster, and still lasted. In the Belmont, he\'ll be beatable if mayube WF
pulls him too fast early. PC was wide on both turns. Ran huge. I\'ll be interested in the analysis for the Belmont, but I won\'t expect pure science.

Too much carping on this page.

lots of mud lines in this race. prospectors,
in realitys, both zitos, et al. if it\'s bad, stickers may be the key. hope the analysis refers to conditions.
