| Dr. Lou - is in the booth - Due to all the insanity in the Judges stand (in the 2008 season), the Trottin Guru gave Boy Wonder a one way ticket to BFE. So for 2009 the state has brought in the infamous -- Dr. Lou Haskill. Dr. Lou was asked recently how was he handling his new position. His response in only three words: "with Common Sense" |
| Third Times A Charm The claiming wargames have begun. The B-Loney stable has been under heavy attack from the Third Times A Charm stable. Third Times A Charm stable has made three claims on the B-Loney stable in recent weeks (and the 3rd one was a charm). The latest coming on Thursday July 2nd. So we asked Roger Rabbit of B-Loney stables how they were gonna fire back. Roger Rabbit said, "We already have, we sent 3 loaves of bread to the Third Times A Charm stable. We want them (Third Times A Charm) to let us know how the B-LONEY sandwiches are tasting right bout now." Ugenius, the informant from the Third Times A Charm stables, fired back with a statement, "If you think 3 loaves of bread is going to fend my guy off, you're freak'n crazy. And another thing, if you can't beat'em...claim'em...then retir'em" |

| To See or Not To See, THAT---is the question -From the Judges Stand- Dear Horsemen: With all due respect - and we do mean - with all due respect, we are not trying to do the wrong thing here. I know we tend to get a little ILLUSIONAL and DELUSIONAL from time to time, thats our nature, but most of the time we see what you think we don't see, and the rest of the time we don't see what you think we do see. Clearly, our vision comes and goes.....like when it comes on the day Go Again is racing, and goes on other days. But nun the less we're trying not to do wrong. Please forgive us if we have. We mean no harm - we may not have a six year degree, but others in our house do. And keep in mind, we're smarter than you look. Just because we are in a place where we have trouble with our sense of di-rection, it doesn't mean we can't see. We may not know our east from our west or north from south but we still have our vision --- from time to time. In short, we're not trying to say that we are never wrong. Of course there are times when we are wrong ... it's just not that often. One thing to remember: Three heads are better than none. |
| How Do They Do It It seems the states racing commission has found a little bit of new money to spend...out of their big budget surplus. Its great to know the head honchos have deemed to spend the states money drug testing qualifiers (non purse - non betting events) at Thunder Ridge. A statement has been issued and it goes something like this; "We feel like this is money well spent. Our fear is we don't want a hillbilly from Thunder Ridge making us look like we have our heads up our ass. The industry doesn't need horses qualifying on drugs they can't race on." It's great to know the top folks have their heads in the vicinity!!!! Our question is: How do you do it --- How do they test qualifiers --- When they don't even test the fair races. How do they do it? |
