Tough Love to River Downs
I feel compelled to show some very tough love to a few the owners running at one of our home POST, River Downs. Let us examine a few entries for, oh, today:
RACE 1
Rackem Shorty
“Rackem Shorty?” You’re inviting your horse to kick the other horses in the nuts? “Rackem Shorty,” I feel compelled to point out, is a gelding.
RACE 2
Fillyforrent
You want the other girl horses calling your girl horse a whore? “Hey, check out our turboslut of a mare! She won’t even wait until she gets back to the breeding shed!”
RACE 4
My Name’s Jemima
I… don’t even want to know. I’m not commenting any further on this one. I don’t want to be named in the lawsuit.
RACE 5
Destitute
Yep. I’m putting four hundred dollars to win on “Destitute.”
RACE 6
Kiss of Death
…Oh crap! I blew the bankroll on “Destitute,” when I could have placed all my confidence in “Kiss of Death.”
RACE 7
He’sachicmagnet
Come on, now. You’re just ceding the Triple Crown at birth with this.
RACE 8
Dave D and Dave W
You just want your horse to get beat up by the other horses when he gets back to the barn, don’t you?
RACE 9
Rib Tip
“This one.. shall honor the appetizer menu at TGI Friday’s.” Rib Tip: By Wild Jalapeño Poppers, out of Loaded Potato Skins Platter.
