Random thoughts to Enlighten and Provoke


A few thoughts about stables and horses...
  • Golden Gate decision to sell broodmare Grecian Formula (dam of a couple marginally successful horses) and buy broodmare Morra (one of the worst horses in PF history) - INADVISABLE.
  • Smokey's Stable picking up 7 wins in this weekend's racing - INCREDIBLE.
  • Saintsrow unraced 2yo Badge winning first race in track record time, and being an offspring of Dubai Gold, who was recently purchased by the Long Island Hayburners for a bargain price of $300,000, which prompted Stonewall Stable guru Bill to say Dubai Gold is and will be a great sire - INTUITIVE.
  • Pegasus Song's eventual place atop the all-time earnings list - INEVITABLE.
  • Only one bid on a steady, productive racer like Kid Flash - INEXPLICABLE.
  • Stupidity of jockey riding Chancellorsville this weekend in never having the horse above effort level 3 for the entire race - INCONTROVERTIBLE.
  • Potential winning streak of Jenny's My Gal of Foxies Lodge - INCALCULABLE.
  • Ettore of Olmo Dorato's absolute refusal to say a bad word about anyone or anything - INSPIRATIONAL.
  • The letter "W" in the word "vowel" - INTERVOCALIC.

Elite being on 2 winners for the season............IN-GLORIOUS.

Bellfast Lad being on 17 for nil...........IN-EXCUSABLE.

Taj Mahal's 22 top 4 finishes in Grade 1's............PRICELESS. lol

Btw I know you speak plenty of Spanish but I don't and yesterday I found It so interesting getting onto http://text-to-speech.imtranslator.net/speech.asp?url=F_TR&dir=en&text=bando%20alle%20ciance# and entering all of Ettore's horses. If you press the pic of the little megaphone a little avatar pops up and says it for you :) I escpecially love the pronounciation of Bando Alle Ciance!

Party-boy Jim "Hollywood wannabe" Webber -- Habitually IN-TOO-LATE.

Jim Webber said...

OK Bill, that's two references to me as a Hollywood-wannabe. One here and the other in your blog.

You weren't complaining when I introduced you to Jessica Simpson the other week.

Bill Miller said...

Jimbo, I'll just say two things: 1) Jess and I had interesting conversations and B) the "wannabe" label did not originate with me. What a nest of snakes that place is, and after all you've done for her, too.

You introduced Bill to Jessica Simpson? You must not like him very much...
