i was at M1 that day--he was locked in for life but Trond opened the door for Malabar Man-drifting out intentionally driving Bowling For Dollars

How many fucking times did he bail the gambling looser Thomas Milicci out of trouble!! He even bought the looser a farm that went to shit!
Poor bastard is married to Milicci’s sister.

won the Hambo sitting the pocket off a :58.0 half and the leader drifted off the rail to let him out - was lucky he even got out to go up the cones

How on Earth should he be in the HOF and Brett Pelling doesn’t have a life size statue outside the place? Who makes these votes.

It's not about Mal vs. Bret, or Mal instead of Brett. Listen, Brett Pelling should be in the HOF before anyone else gets in. But it ain't happening. Nobody from "Down Under" has ever been elected to the HOF. I wonder why. I think it's a shame that he's not in, but I am not going to condemn those who get in before him. Whether they deserve it or not is another issue.

Benny Webster and Brett Pelling should be in the HOF.

  • Bitter Truth: That Golden Tempo , I'm afraid is  a money burner. Gets so far back. Was in range but just hung and raced even in the stretch. Didn't see a Derby winner in there in my opinion.

  • dougie: He got good tactical speed. I really thpught he had a big shot to pull it off.

  • Trigger: I thought BT & I had a real good shot w/ a 110 4/5, wide but nice momentum, and then a sharp left turn mid stretch ended that  ngc3
