The spawn of Jimmie The Greek keep making Bodemeister the favourite. Will that continue for the third jewel?

That's what Chongo is always saying. "Think I'll Have Another"

I'm surprised he hasn't been betting on that horse.

But, gnu, horses don't get laid. They get "stood".

And if the McBrides had ever bred a champion racehorse for Canada, it would have been called "Northern Wanker".

The nag's name is "I'll Have Another", without the "Think".

For sheer studliness, take a look at the record of Northern Dancer, who won the Kentucky Derby and the Preakness, but not the Belmont. Of course, he walked away with the Queen's Plate, but only us Canadians care about that.

Northern Dancer's descendants have the most amazing track record, making him one of the most influential sires of the 20th century.

"he had to be moved far away from the scent of the mares........"

The bastards! All that money and they won't let him get laid? Cruel and unusual!

Secretariat was argably the greatest racehorse ever but he did poorly at stud comparatively. Now Seattle Slew was a real bum's horse.....my kinda' horse.   He hated to train and did it in bad temper but he loved to race. He loved the crowds and he loved the attention, just hated training! Then there was Slew at stud.......a real machine! Even just before his death with illness and a debillitating hoof disease, he had to be moved far away from the scent of the mares........Gotta' admit, that's, uh, well......that's a horny fuckin' horse!!!

The only horse picture I have in my house is a beautiful pencil drawing of Slew. The artist captured the look of the true wag and when I saw it, I had to have it!

Yes, Seattle Slew 1977, Affirmed in 1978. My wife and I don't know anything about horse racing, but really enjoy watching those three races.

Didn't Seattle Slew and Affirmed win more recently? But none since the 1970's

Good horse. I agree it would be cool for it to win the Triple Crown. I wonder how many horses have one the first two races but not the third. I wonder, but not enough to Google it to try to find out!

Cubs? Win the World Series? I hope so! Whenever the Boston Red Sox are completely out of the picture, I start rooting for the Cubs. I want to see it happen.

Well, well, well...

Not that I'm all eaten up with horse racing but...

..."Think I'll Have Another" has done just that and is one win away from the Triple Crown...
