Where are the poll horses this week?
« on: August 23, 2023, 01:03:04 PM »
There is a new number one this week, as the previous monarch went off stride and subsequently falls to number two. so, where are they?
1. Confederate: idle
2. Sylvia hanover: idle
3. It’s my show: finished second at the red mile yesterday to cannibal in 1:48.4, referenced in another horseplop thread. Will be idle as of now.
4. It’s academic: qualifier 8/24 at the meadowlands
5. Tactical approach: Kentucky sire stakes leg at the red mile on 8/27
6. Silver label: idle
7. Jiggy jog S: Idle
8. MM’s dream: qualifier at the meadowlands 8/24
9. Bythemissal: Canadian pacing derby elimination at woodbine Mohawk 8/26
10. Grace hill: fillies and mares open at scioto downs 8/25

EDIT: the horse who had the most points who didn’t make the poll, twin B joe fresh, is in at tioga in an empire breeders classic leg Sunday, per Arnold Wilkin on FB

I think Confederate is definitely #1, but I thought he should've been before that.

  • dougie: Calhoun, I am not surprised at anyone who doesn't share my opinion. Everyone has the right to their own point of view. As for whatever acts you mentioned=Ed that he might have committed, it should not draw away from his horses advocacy. Many folks have done lots of things wrong. But despite that, should the good things they do be li=jumped into their misdeeds? Is a person to be judgedf on their worst day or instinct? Like I mentioned before, I don't know of the man. But I have studied up on him. I cannot answer for the things you and others seem to know about him as a human being. But I will continue to support his efforts to make the treatment of horses more humane.

  • Calhoun: Doug, Legit horse welfare advocacy is good. But your hero's current iteration is his 3rd such "alliance." You want to know why, DM me your email. You want to support the guy who baits working people into taking a swipe at him, good for you. You want to support the guy who steps behind a 75 yo man and lets that guy take a punch meant for him, go for it. You called me every name in the book, that;s ok. But your opinion is just that. But it's disingenuous to act surprised that others don't share your opinion.

  • dougie: I think that people should applaud anyone interested in the welfare of horses. Carriage or racing horses. To this day, I've never understood the venom spewed against a guy who seems to want to clean up racing. Some might question his motive for his advocacy. But why would anyone care if the result benefits the horses? If you attack the "messenger' in a cause, shouldn't the detractors have a valid reason why they attack him. Or is it only personable. I never met Mike. But I think his wanting to do the right thing is admirable.
