    my horse runs again tommorow at sa

    my little breadwinner turbulent descent will be racing again tommorow at s.a in the los virgines 250k stakes. run girl run. only 17 more to go to beat the queen. wish i could go but i am out of town. Carparts make sure you root her on from there and i will get you those owners passes on the next race when i come.

    i need some you lucky guys to place a wager on her to keep her streak going.

    this was funny came from equinetic.com

    On regular occasion, Equinetic will be interviewing a race horse in the news.
    Equinetic Analyst (E): How does it feel to be undefeated? You won the Moccasin and now the Starlet at Hollywood Park.
    Turbulent Descent (TD): It feels great, but I’m a little nervous.
    E: About what?
    TD: I’m afraid people will start to say that I’m just a synthetic specialist. That stuff started to get to Zenyatta a little bit. She felt a lot of negative energy back at Churchill.
    E: You know Zenyatta?
    TD: Oh, yes. She’s very friendly, and very funny. Before the Starlet, she sent me a text.
    E: What did she say?
    TD: “Only 17 more to go.” She’s so funny.
    E: She sounds like a character.
    TD: Oh, she is.
    E: So what’s next for you?
    TD: Oh, I don’t know. They never tell us what’s next. They don’t even tell us when we’re working out.
    E: Well, tell us about your victory in the Starlet.
    TD: When I saw my odds, I got nervous. I was 4-5! I don’t want people losing money because of me!
    E: Did you think you would win?
    TD: Not after I read what you posted about me. You said that I didn’t have the pedigree to run that far and that I was a good bet-against.
    E: I’m sorry. Zenyatta was a good-bet against, too.
    TD: I know what you’re saying, EA … Well, to be honest, I thought that I would win. I looked at the Form the day before, and I just didn’t see any competition. The horse you picked, Zazu, didn’t bother me. Nice call there, EA. (laughing) Plus, my trainer had me fit. I was ready to keep the streak going. Everybody was telling me that I was a monster, so I was feeling pretty confident, for the most part. But you never know. I felt that if David kept me out of trouble, I’d win.
    E: Do you think you’d like to race against the boys?
    TD: No way. Uncle Mo is too spectacular for that to happen. For now, I’ll just beat up on the girls. Plus, I’d be too distracted racing against Uncle Mo.
    E: Why’s that?
    TD: Are you kidding me? He’s the Brad Pitt of race horses. He’s a looker!
    E: Do you think you can win on dirt?
    TD: Absolutely! Come on, the good ones can race on anything. Like Zenyatta. I heard she smacked Ginger Punch on the dirt by daylight, and Ginger Punch was something special, from what they tell me. And Zen’s loss to Blame proved that she could run well on any surface. She got beat by only a few inches after a horrible start, worse than usual for her, and some other trouble. Come on, Blame had a tremendous home-court advantage at Churchill Downs.
    E: Guess what Beyer you earned in the Starlet?
    TD: Oh, please. I could care less what Beyer I earned. Andy doesn’t know how to make figures for anything except dirt. And even then, they’re not all that accurate. I mean, trainers are claiming horses because of the Ragozin numbers, not the Beyers. You never hear a trainer say, “We claimed her because of her Beyers.” No, horses get claimed because of the Ragozin numbers. Do you know what Ragozin number I earned in the Starlet?
    E: No, I don’t keep track of stuff like that.
    TD: And you call yourself a handicapper?
    E: I’ll try to find out for you. There’s a few Sheets guys on Facebook. Who’s better, you or Zenyatta?
    TD: What kind of question is that? Who’s better, EA, you or Pittsburgh Phil?
    EA: Me.
    TD: My, what confidence you have, EA. I think Pittsburgh Phil would have picked me over Zazu. (laughing) Come on, Zenyatta is a once-in-a-lifetime legend. I mean, she knew where the wire was. She said it was fun for her to time her run just right. She loved the excitement of the close finishes. Down at Del Mar, she almost lost one, she said, because she timed it too close. She loved hearing all of the cheers as she charged down the stretch.
    EA: So did I.
    TD: She was a stone-cold closer, and it was in her blood to run that way. Horses don’t win races by 17 lengths when it’s in their genetic make-up to not start running until the 16th pole. It hurt Zen that people didn’t understand that about her.
    E: There’s a lot of goofy people out there who call themselves experts.
    TD: You can say that again. (eyebrows raised at me)
    E: Hey, I promise I’ll pick you next time, even though you’re an RIP.
    TD: An RIP? What’s that?
    E: A reputation-induced phenomenon. Your bank roll dies if you bet horses like that.
    TD: I get it. Ha-ha … Hey, you in the mood for a Guinness?
    E: My favorite. You’ve got some?
    TD: Yeah, Zen had a 6-pack delivered to my stall this morning with a note attached.
    E: What did the note say?
    TD: “Only 16 more to go.” She’s so funny. I’m gonna miss her.
    E: We all are.

    Cool. Secretariat is in there from both sides... So is Seattle Slew. So is Northern Dancer.

    What do you mean with your horse? Are you the owner? Or is it a favorite horse of yours? Sweet to have a horse like that, running for 150K first prize, favorite in a field of only six.

    yeah dark i am part owner. i purchased 5 percent with blinkers on stables for her. So far she is have done really well and with a win today i will already have more then my investmet back. I bought her hoping to break even, but more importantly teaching my 8 year old son about horses and such. Before her racing career began she was in ocala which is a 3 hour drive here from west palm, so i wanted to him to experience it being able to touch and feed a racehorse. Honestly I never thought in a million years, we would been so lucky with her. I pretty much went all in with her in the investment which you should never do, but it worked out for me. The only bad thing is she runs on the west coast and its tough for me to get to cali to see her live. If she wins today i probably will take the check and purchase a smaller race horse here at gulfstream/calder so my son can go and do the things most owners get to do. She has talent. today will be a test on dirt because she has ran on the sythentic tracks only. Mike Pype is a good trainer though and I can't wait. I just pray for a safe trip because i was watching the breeders cup with my son with rough saling with euthonized and its hard to explain that to a 8 year old, what that is. So i am always nervous.
    thanks everyone for your kind words. Hopefully we can bring her home today

    go to the blinkers on website and they have avalaible horses. you can purchase small shares or bigger. they are excellent and if you have questions and email them they respond quickly. i inquired and they overnighted me a package that had info on all their horses. first class stables.
