My fantasy stable horse entered in Wood Memorial

Postby Toccet02 » Wed Mar 31, 2010 1:34 pm

Carnivore
chestnut colt
Giant's Causeway/Biogio's Rose by Polish Numbers
$280,000

3-1-1-1 $27,240 MSW winner


Are they nuts? gee, I hope not! my 3YO crop has only won back 12% of its purchase cost. Although my win % is 20% and the ITM is 44%.

I know some others of you are playing a similar tracking game...thought you'd be amused, AND wanted to ask how your stables are doing!

It is noted that you had selected a Giant's Causeway colt in Carnivore... a true fantasy. Here's another one to place in your Dream Stable. Do the math on this winner.

oh and BTW I really picked him because of him dam and damsire. The GC made me hesitate. I only select horses BEFORE they ever race.

Congrats on the high-profile race!
I don't have any standouts in the US yet this year, but I had a really good weekend back in March with A Student (Afleet Alex -- La Sorbonne) and Duke of Naples (Empire Maker -- Merion Miss) both winning and a couple others running respectably.
My big score this year is Passion for Gold (Medaglia D'Oro -- C'Ests L' Amour), who is racing in Europe :D (he's the single reason I'm running at 13% recovery...)
