The Power and Reach of Plop!
« on: October 24, 2023, 08:56:51 AM »
So I'm watching my local OTB channel last night and they are talking about one of the middle races from Woodbine Mohawk.  Waples and Blowe are giving their selections.  Waples selects the favorite and then says something to the effect "I guess that makes me a, what was it, a chalk eating weasel".

Those were the exact words written by Plop member Bello yesterday when he wrote:

"Pocono Race 1   I cannot help being a chalk eating weasel when they toss me races like this."

Did anyone else catch this?

That's super cool. Just hope no one quotes Petrelli "Ya'll are fucking horse killers and cowards"

I wish I could take credit for it. I don't know where I heard it before, but I know I did. It may have been Andy Serling. Pretty sure I can picture him saying it.

 It's true....I've been contacted by many industry participants via plop.  I've even had top drivers like Simon Allard ask to drive horses for me.
