Hate that we lost Improbable so soon. I hope he gets some good runners.

I'd be careful with that. They might be retired early

Me too. Danni hates him because he was trained by Baffert and everything she types is useless.

Me too. I really hope he has a few standouts in his limited crop of foals.

Super hopeful for Hejazi's half brother by Improbable. He's going thru OBS this month.

It's hardly worth saying, but Improbable had one of the longest careers lately--behind perhaps Hoppertunity!

To be honest, both Improbable and Hoppertunity didn’t have the most “stylish” pedigrees, giving them a reason to race longer - which worked out, both were good horses after 3.

:( :( :( :( :( HAP has his first runner - and it’s the worst name ever


his name is Dancing Porky and he runs at TP on 4/11

I tried using sobbing, angry and barfing emoticons, but they don’t work…

Wow…that’s pretty bad. Watch him turn out to be a good runner and we have to keep seeing the name.

My mind went straight to Porky’s the movie …I really hope he’s named after a friend or even Porky Pig 😬😬😬

As bad as the name is, I’d love for that to happen …I’m so excited to see how HAP does!
