Quality Road's major tantrum--no more--- he wins the DONN!

You Too, Barnfairy!

Controversy aside, and not at all to slight any of your other accomplishments or experience, but this simply must be made into a business card:

Hallie McEvoy,
Ass Judge and
Very Good Side-Saddle Rider

You rock Hallie. You rock.[/QUOTE]

Ahhhh Barnfairy!
Thank you so much (Hallie takes a small curtsey while wearing fuzzy pink slippers). I have often thought of having ‘Ass Judge’ put on a button, but a business card with both sentiments would truly be ideal.

As you’ll see, I do have a button on my Belmont hat that I wear to every racetrack unless it is freezing cold (of course no buttons on Belmont day - just white carnations) that says ‘Places to Go, People to Annoy.’ I believe in wholeheartedly striving to make that happen

I think you all should know that I am being distracted by Bubba the Jack Russell humping Maynard Krebs, the formerly feral feline (FFF) who has not only extra toes but an extra foot on each front leg. I’ve chosen to live in the strangest world!

Blessings,
Hallie

PS - Grataan - great comeback! I laughed so hard when I read “Bless your little heart, I’m not your sweety” I thought I was going to pass out.

Super Snort! And I thought I was the only one lucky enough to have a Jack Russell who has a cat humping fetish! It is his birthday today, so if the cat doesn’t mind…

And, I’d like to say I very much agreed with and enjoyed reading your comments on this thread.

Oh Hallie, I can only hope to one day be Dr Grataan, Ass Judge.

Although, I do spend quite a lot of time through the spring with my arm up that end of mares and cows. Hmmm…

Ooh. I like it. Maybe I should have “animal excrement removal technician” put on a button, or perhaps “certified bovine artificial inseminator”, both of which I am.

Poor Maynard Krebs. As if it’s not enough that his lot in life was to be a parasitic-limbed polydactyl, now he must cope with interspecies relatial confusion.

At least he doesn’t have to work for his food anymore.

seems to be a theme here.

Racing today (Sat Feb 6) in the 10th at Gulfstream - the Grade 1 Donn Handicap I expect Quality Road to once again demonstrate his significant talent over the 8 contenders lined up against him.

[Glimmerglass]

Whoa!

Quality Road not only crushed the field, not only set the Grade 1 Donn Handicap stakes record but set the track record

That was the horse so many thought would’ve been a major contender in the BCC.

Loaded like an angel and broke perfectly … he just put all older horses on notice.

[Drvmb1ggl3]

Don’t know whether to be impressed with QR’s track record breaking performance or depressed that the quality of the rest of the older male horse division is that bad that he won by half the stretch.

[cottagefarm]

Kudos to the GSP gate crew. Great job loading QR. Non of the forcing,blind folding crap they did at SA.
My 2 fav greys Dry Martini and my neighbors Delightful Kiss 2nd and 3rd.

QR was heaviest weighted horse of today (anywhere) as far as I can see and he made it look ridiculously easy !

[Glimmerglass]

Set aside the 12 3/4-length victory (largest in the 52-years of the Donn) if the perception the field is weak. (Helsinki, for example, was carrying 10-lbs less)

Focusing on the final time for the mile and one-eighth in a track-record 1:47.49 sans getting pressed and its hard not to say that he’s highly talented. The divisional leader as expected. Even if the division had stronger runners they still would’ve been trounced by that performance.

[FatDinah]

Very impressive.
I’d say it’s time to start a new thread: Quality Road lives up to his talent

Ditto this. Rach and Zenny have some competition and better be looking over their shoulders. I believe that it is safe to say at this point that QR is as freaky as the Zapper.
