Win, lose, or draw...he'll be another Storm Cat polluting the landscape at a $5,000 fee in 2008.

He got nipped at the wire . . . . . . he's a game "little" horse. (and I mean little, unless all the other horses in the race were 17h . . . . . . )

Did you see that when Bob Baffert was asked about him a few days before he entered, Bob said, "Let me put it this way: he's doing a lot better than The Green Monkey right now. At least he's not on the farm." :shock: I guess Bob doesn't plan on training for The Green Monkey's owners any time soon.

Well, Baffert can afford to be contemptuous...after all HIS colt only cost HALF as much as the Green Monkey . . . :roll:
