It's the whole a.p. INDY relative thing again though if I crash out in my next Indy race again then I might be OUT OF INDY - yikes - at least i can fall back on my swimsuit modeling career!
Luvya,

Dearest Pollster,
Please place one vote for our beloved Brit - Mafaaz. A Mafaaz win would go long way in repairing relations after our "civil" war against the colonies - you still owe us for the tea you know.
Apr. 9, 2009 - Old Fashioned or Friesan Fire
Posted by Larry Jones
I train Old Fashioned and Friesan Fire - how about a perfecta there - huh? I'm also seeking the sympathy vote because I trained Eight Belles as well - can I not appeal to your readers sensitivities and sympathies on this matter - please make one of my horses win - with all due respect to the Queen of course.
Apr. 9, 2009 - Pioneer

I was the REAL Pioneer of the Nile - therefore I pick Pioneer of the Nile. I also demand that I be the only true royalty accepted on your poll here. That British woman doesn't count - I was here first.
Apr. 9, 2009 - Go with the Queen on this one!
Posted by Baffert
I support the Queen, the first Queen - not the new queen - ahhh - you know what I mean. I'm picking Pioneer of the Nile because I train him, I'm smart and I WIN RACES - sorry Danica - lets do lunch some time!
Apr. 9, 2009 - Location is everything?
Posted by Revenge
Can we move Kentucky to Aqueduct? - I seem to only be able to win there! Lets do it. I'll win - I really will - uh...if it's at Aqueduct.
Apr. 9, 2009 - Your readers know NOTHING...

Danica is a wreck waiting to happen - and I'd rather see a horse in a bikini than her!
Q.E. II shoulda retired about this time - LAST CENTURY.
Cleopatra - are you serious? She DID retire - about this time LAST MILLENNIUM!
Baffert and Jones are losers too - Big Brown crushed their hopes last year and I reveled in it - ha, ha, ha, ha...only problem is...well...I don't have a horse on your list here this year OR I'D VOTE FOR THAT ONE! All things considered, I'll pick Big Brown again.
Apr. 10, 2009 - My pick

I'm picking Pioneer of the Nile - more races at different places than most of the others.
Man you have some wierd people commenting on your blog these days. I'd say Dutrow is just rude - God save the Queen!
Love ya,
Daddy
