I'll probably place a random bet, but I just think horse racing is sooo f*cking stupid. Worst sport ever? Possibly. I'd rather watch water polo.

Office random sweeps has given me Blue Monday and Sculptor, are they any good?
Post 9
Blue Monday: David Hayes is an awesome trainer, so never know with his horses.
Sculptor has been running out of its skin lately, so you haven't done too badly there a few analysts like it.
wouldn't hold my breath though...they are both "what if" horses really. But they do have some chance.
