    Those are two sires who have crop after crop of stakes winners though. Frankel, while absolutely breathtaking, is still unproven as a sire.

    thanks alot Nate, no fuckin pressure on me now!

    Morse is working like a champ. We will x-ray his knees in Jan and see if they are properly closed. If so, we will continue to let him work at Aiken and see if he is the type we hope he will be, then run him at the Aiken Trials and then off to Palm Meadows with TAP. We sure hope that Tapit breeding continues to pay-off. BTW, his dam sire. Include, is having a very good breding career himself. Baring any kind of injury, we hope to have a runner this sumer!

    There's nothing really to talk about. I'm not looking for any new subscribers. Thanks for the interest though.

    John, what's going on with Palace Malice these days?

    Palace Malice has been down at Palm Meadows for a few weeks, just galloping daily. He is slated to have his first breeze first week in December, and begin getting a tighten-down for the Fountain Of Youth. TAP still says that he is the best of the 2yo crop, and that speaks volumes after Shanghi Bobby's romp in BC, but you never know how they will come back from even a minor injury like bucked shins?

    Forgot to mention that tomorrow at Aqueduct, race 6, we will see the return of Soldat. I already sent FB and FL a line with details, but suffice to say, look-out!

    Thanks. Glad to hear he's doing okay. I agree that he looked like Pletcher's best 2yo, at least heading into the Hopeful before he got sidelined. Shanhai Bobby was obviously very impressive thereafter.

    No offense intended. I'm just thinking about closing the site soon.
