If Country House Wins the Triple Crown

[Silver Charm]

Will you accept it?

[sekrah]

I really don\'t care if a few bitter MS ticket holders don\'t accept it. They can grumble their life away.

[boardedup]

Always tainted I’d think.  But can he really wheel back again in two weeks?  He just ran the race of his life to place?

[Silver Charm]

Probably correct and flattened out a little late while bearing out. I know Mott wont do it but Tacitus should run back. Cinch

No worries. He didn\'t win the first one. He aint\' winning any more. Not with \"Applesauce\" that 3rd rate shill of a horse trainer giving racing a black eye.

Interesting. I know people who bet Country House and they got paid. So no matter how you look at it he had to be declared the winner as in \"The Race is Official\".

Motts never been anything but Class. Came up the hard way. Earned his stripes as a respected horseman going all the back to Heatherten and Vanlandingham. If he loses the next one he wont be one thing for sure. A sore koser....

[atakante]

Nice horse but I’m afraid Country House had its Keen Ice moment of glory already.  Will bet against if he makes it to Preakness. If he got couple more DQs going his way and somehow won the TC, that one would have an asterisk for me. It has to, no other TC winner left a doubt whether they were the best horse to my knowledge.

What exactly did you expect Mott to say with the camera in his face and the reporter grilling him?  What exactly did he say that offended it you?  I can smell the sour grapes on your breath from Florida.

#1 Couldn’t agree more on Mott, but I think the two you mentioned from the 80s were another class act, Shug.

[albatross]

#2 I just pulled out the book to check, Both Mott and Shug trained Heatherton. I remember seeing Shug at Mth with her, but he might have recently taken the Loblolly job. Regardless, agree on either or both.

[sekrah]

Yes, let\'s go after Mott for stating the truth.  Let\'s not go after Saez who lied about what happened.

Totally correct. Vanlandingham was NO DOUBT Shug for the Loblolly Stable. I went brain dead there and I have a story about a friend trying to call me the day Shug shipped this one up on Suburban Day after a blistering CD Work and at 10-1 who won by 10 and I was playing golf pre cell phone. How about that answering machine message when I got home....ugh  

I believe I was thinking about Theatrical for Mott. First owned by Firestone then Paulson or a little of both. A couple of powerhouse operations from 25+ years ago

Yes these guys landed in some of these jobs at the recommendation of the Lexington Blue Blood crowd. Good man good horseman does right by the horse type of thing. Mott personally lost both his parents at a young age. Learned under Van Berg. Literally slept in a few stalls. He would saddle a Heatherten and then a $5,000 claimer in the last at CD with the same level of attention. Its who he is.

I\'ve seen these slo mo people have been posting.

* Saez was one path inside a tire track then was 2 paths outside that same tire track. Ok fair enough he got spooked and \"herded\" some of the field wide.

*Then he made a left hand turn and went 5 paths left after Code of Honor. Slightly brushed and kept Code of Honor on a part of the Track that had not even been sealed.

*When he \"herded\" it caused Bode to back up out of there and it caused a few other jocks behind that group to hold and steady for a few jumps.

Saez had the best horse and probably didn\'t need to do all of this. He did he was reckless and this is an easy DQ. Doesn\'t mater it was the Derby. The only reason its a hard call

[NoCarolinaTony]

Too much drama. Saez lies about what exactly? It’s over and done with. Move on. If it goes to court it goes to court. Country House out of Preakness, no triple crown talk - shut it down.

LMAO who made you the Moderator? Get real. Go tell PDub to screw himself again?  It was a legitimate question and these were legitimate points. We post on here all year. See you again in 51 weeks pal
