"'STABLE,' EH? Well, as they say at the Kentucky Derby: I’ll Have Another."

"Thanks for bringing me back, Glenn. Have a great vacation, as we guest horses attempt to inspire the disheartened crowd that many perhaps only partially fill the stands."

ndspinelli বলেছেন...: I had Gemologist and he underperformed. I made a bet for a friend who knows nothing about horses and she put $20 on I'll Have Another, paid her $326! I studied and lost big, she liked the name of the horse and won. C'est la vie.; ৬/৫/১২, ১২:১৬ PM
edutcher বলেছেন...: Althouse subbing at Insta is the same thing that happens when Yul Brynner needs a little help and Charlie Bronson and Jim Coburn show up.

PS Saw the race (been watching them since I was about 8) and that was a great finish.

Do we have another Secretariat?; ৬/৫/১২, ১২:১৯ PM
ndspinelli বলেছেন...: edutcher, There will never be another Secretariat. This[I'll Have Another] is a good horse, in a field of many good horses..none great, but really 10-12 good ones. The Triple Crown is so difficult w/ the Belmont making sure there are no flukes. That 1 1/2 miles makes sure of that. We got married the day Seattle Slew won the Triple Crown[6/11/77]. As an homage to my old man, the ceremony was before the Belmont and the reception after the race. It wasn't a big deal but he was genuinely touched. And, everyone got to watch history.; ৬/৫/১২, ১২:৫২ PM
