Am I the only one who thinks that career top number on Sister Charlie might set her back? Add in the fact that Johnny V seems married to the 4 path with this horse as well as most others in the last year.

dglass2232: Maybe but what is the worst she runs a 3? Does lasix move  Aiden\'s horse up that much?

joemama: Goes in the second race today at Arlington.  Suspect that there may be some local interest here.

jbelfior: Chad\'s other horse is interesting in there. The paceless Monmouth tune-up and now the second off the brief layoff.

Castellano inside with ground saving trip behind a lively pace could get it done if SC regresses a bit off her last.

Good Luck,
Joe B.

belmont3: Are you saying the horse \"can do can do\" ?

joemama: Actually was thinking about the Thorograph employee here.  But those lyrics are a real classic.

dglass2232: A few Millions ago I got in an elevator with Barry Irwin. He is usually on hand for Million day. I didn\'t notice Valor having any horses in the big races today. A couple of years ago DiVito was hitting around 45%  with firsters and it was a good size sample too. Have to think this one might be cranked up to give the Team Valor group at AP some excitement today.

joemama: Maybe the Nicely Nicely that posts on this site will put a couple of bucks on him just in case.  7-2 early line.

TGJB: Okay, without doing a search, what\'s the basis for that being the name of the horse?

When I was in Saratoga last week Guys and Dolls was on starting late, I watched it (again) til like 2:30 AM.

Not as good as the Nathan Lane/Faith Prince Broadway production of some years ago, but looking at Jean Simmons makes up the difference. Broadway version was the best live show I ever saw, aside from about 40 Springsteen shows.

Silver Charm: Best live show I ever saw was Nikki Benz. Game run from this one to get up and cash for the Board. Thx!!

Edgorman: Agree, the production with Nathan a Lane was awesome. I took my parents, who had previously seen the original with Stubby Kaye and Sam Levene.
Both shows ranked number one in their hearts.

Sire Lemon Drop Kid was named for a story by Damon Runyon, who also wrote the story that was the basis of Guys and Dolls, featuring the character \"Nicely Nicely Johnson\" (Johnson, yes?), who opens the show with \"Fugue for Tinhorns\" and stops it with \"Sit Down You\'re Rocking the Boat\".

hellersorr: And who played The Lemon Drop Kid in the moving pictures?

40 shows?? Wow!!

Just saw Joe Bonamassa last night in Lincoln, Nebraska. If anyone puts on a better performance than that guy, let me know. Fking incredible. 3rd time I\'ve seen him in a year and going again in Oakland this October. What a gifted guitar player.

hellersorr: Long ago and far away it was hard to beat Kim Wilson and Los Fabulosos Thunderbirds.
