Is the kid for real or is this a pipe dream?

OMG, he's still out there. I do admire his tenacity. I'm glad he's resurfaced; I'd like to see where this kid goes with his nuttiness.

I'll say this for the kid. He forges on despite everything. Perhaps his tenacity will one day overwhelm his inexperience.

I see that mare is back to being undefeated too.

Didn't anyone recognize the similarity in the post on the buying/selling forum? http://www.pedigreequery.com/forum/view ... hp?t=21304

Rather than saying the mare is undefeated he should try this=

"After intensive negotians I've been able to lease the fantastic racemare Island Key for breeding. This mare won consecutive races at the prestigous Western Montana Fair. That's an accomplishment that even Affirmed, Seattle Slew, Secretariat, Seabiscuit, and the great Man O' War can't claim."

Island key really did win consecutive races at the Western Montana Fair race meet. I didn't make that up. There really was a Western Montana Fair race meet (I don't think they run it anymore though).

It's too bad Jess Jackson got wise to bloodstock agent Narvick International. Back in the day they could have sold him a bunch of these $3,200 shares for about $10,000 a share. Sure Jackson would have had to pay more than the real price, but he'd be in line to own a piece of a guaranteed Champion. I mean according to this new competitor to Werk Nicks and True Nicks, an outfit called "Jordan Nicks", the cross of Jazil and a Star Programmer mare is an AAAAAAAAAA+++++++++++++++ nick.

I'm with you. I think we might be seeing a future U.S. Senator here.

Ok, I know this is more than likely someone's pipe dream. However, I must put my 2cents worth in. I thought about breeding to Star Programmer and am so thankful I didn't and thankful that he's gone from TX. Every baby I've seen of his is a nut case. 2yr olds in trg sales and on the track at Lone Star. I'm not a Storm Cat fan anyway, but thought he might be a nice horse. :roll:

I like the part about the guarantee of riches. I thought this guy might mature, but it isn't happening.

As for a senator? Nope, we're looking at a future president when America eventually turns from a superpower into the minipower that the educational system is pushing it towards.

And when president Afleet Alex gives out tax incentives, it won't be checks, it'll be shares in unborn foals by mares that are undefeated at now defunct county fairs - bound to make us big dollars.

Oh dear God I just threw up in my mouth a little. Is Island Key the name of that poor mare he got his hands on? Or is this another one? He didn't actually ID the first one did he? Out of curiosity is she even officially booked to Jazil for next year? I mean they're not so desperate they're taking her are they? Just ship him over to Japan/Korea/India and be done with it if that's all they can pull off in terms of an American book.
