I know it's T-breds, but people don't talk enough about Two Phil's nearly winning the Kentucky Derby last year.

Would've been so huge for Illinois racing to have the 2023 Kentucky Derby winner trained and stabled at Hawthorne. Add on that last year's Preakness was the weakest ever... he could've had a shot at the Triple Crown

Was the best horse in that class and ran the best race that day, but loyalty to the Illinois jockey (Loveberry) was his downfall. So close to something so big

  • Sweet: Thankfully Mike is on the case, along with NYCLASS and other protestors.  When any side has no represenation, then they're screwed, because money and power rule of ethics i.e. the horse racing industry and how it cannot self sustain.  Pacer 2 and G are evil, nuts too!  tmbz1

  • dougie: IIB, I think the mayor will sign the bill if it reaches his desk. The optics on this issue is bad for the horse carriage industry. Animal activists are adept to using the media to enlist horror and anger by the public.

  • Ignorance Is Bliss: It's now a bill with city council. Public hearings will be scheduled then the council votes on it. If passed it's sent to the Mayor to sign into law. He has already said he's in. Marte just took over, Bob Holden is the actual author of the bill who retired last year.

  • dougie: IIB, I have been reading some of the work Councilman Marte has been doing on this issue. I think he might be successful with passing the 'Ryders Law" Bill this time around. The image of the horse dead on the street has even been seen here everywhere. If the animal activists can get this on the ballot, who knows how the vote will go.

  • Ignorance Is Bliss: You peaked at typing on Horseplop. Bravo. I was invited, that's Councilman Chris Marte next to me, good guy. [link]
