He had a bout of colic and they found a strangulated part of his cecum after they opened him up.

It is a shame he is a gelding, he's got a lot to offer in the stamina department. And he had energy to spare after that race..
Does anyone know if Hartmann has commented on Breeder's Cup plans?

I've been watching Presious Passion for about a year now, ever since last year's Pan American..
He's put in a few real nice races lately.

i asked many vets today about the use of steroids in relation to side effects of early breakdowns. the vets said people that take steroids use 200 % higher dosage than are given our tbs. steroids does not cause breakdowns, as the dosage is given in small amounts. many of those 2yr. olds are kept in...

Louis, I also hope that Pete has a home to go to now that the meet has ended..he's a tough dude to run so long. :) I did contact FLTAP about him but he is not in their program and I can't find him on the trainer listings. So perhaps he's got owners with a local barn or something along those lines. :...

Louis, there is an Unbridled's Song running up at Finger Lakes, name is Pete Shure. now in 5K Claiming but he gets up there in the money his fair share. He is out of UBS first crop in '98, and has about 100 starts, not sure when he was last updated. http://www.pedigreequery.com/pete+shure Have been ...

Yeah, she "goosesteps" (their term not mine) when hyped up, apparently quite normal for her.

Flip a coin, I'm still at 5 for the tri. First Defence can win if he puts in an effort even with his career best, so can Fabulous Strike or In Summation. Street Boss? Can't ignore his closing capabilities.. And of course Lute. Fabulous Strike in the Vosburgh, that was off a layoff and in the slop. L...

I dunno, that was one incredible move by Stardom Bound..and a heck of a time put down too.
Though I agree, betting on her for the futures probably wouldn't be the best, too much can happen between now and then and I know a few potentially nice ones yet to really get in gear.

I got my butt kicked in this race. :(
What the heck happened to Ginger Punch? Good call on her BDW, I could not have imagined her out of the top 4.
This is one race I think would have turned out completely different on real dirt. Wonder what tomorrow will bring, the Sprint is confounding me still.

I didn't realize there was a handicapping forum as well, that is new! Blessing did OK but I don't think this was her best race. Maybe the surface but she also just did not seem to mentally be in the race.. She is off to Dubai for the Shaheen, while this was a good race by Ventura, on Dirt I still sa...
