[Barnfairy]

Congratulations. Is she by The White Fox?

And where are you running? Aqueduct? WalMart?

[ThisTooShallPass]

Walmart?! WalMart?! You insult me! :mad:


Much more CLASS than that! We are running at Target! :yes:

[ThisTooShallPass]

She is by InsertQuartertoWin, out of the In Front Of the Store mare Get Off Me Kid.

[shalomypony]

So she runs for a quarter?;):lol:

[Barnfairy]

Of course! She's a quarter horse!

Silly me, assuming she was a thoroughbred.

[ThisTooShallPass]

Ah, well, you obviously knew InsertQuartertoWin's Sire was Spend a Buck. It probably just never dawned on you he covered a Quarter Horse mare named...

[Acertainsmile]

MetalMomma...

[ThisTooShallPass]

:lol: :lol: :lol:

[ThisTooShallPass]

You think if we insert four quarters we can make her go a mile?

[nightsong]

Ah, well, you obviously knew InsertQuartertoWin's Sire was Spend a Buck. It probably just never dawned on you he covered a mare named...

Divide by Four.

[ThisTooShallPass]

Divide by Four.

Oh, now that was clever! :yes:

[jengersnap]

Eh, I have her washed up no good can't run for a ham sandwich full sister Pulled the Plug. Hope you have better luck with your filly.

[Reds-n-Greys]

:lol::lol: You guys are amazing! Thanks for the laugh! But who's buying me the new keyboard?????

[Glimmerglass]

A whole quarter? Nah, if you used a dime and got PVal to ride her I bet you'd win the Wal-Mart/Kmart/Target series.

How long before Michael Iavarone comes by and checks her out for IEAH? :D

OMG, he came around offering wooden nickels! How dare he! Oh, & then he even wanted change back! *gasp*

[Glimmerglass]

btw - there appears to be a lot of scrapes on the left side ... did Calvin Borel take her out and rub the rail?

[ThisTooShallPass]

(use the zoom feature)

You can really see the strong TB influence in her sire: http://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/1950s-champion-horse-ride-with-speed-control-1

Dam reference. Sure can see the QH there: http://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/antique-coin-operated-horse-kiddie-ride-champion

Oh, & jengersnap, I hope this is not too shameful for you, but I found a pict of Pulled the Plug: http://www.carouselworkshop.com/items/item430.htm

Biancone's entry?

;)

[ThisTooShallPass]

Personally, I was thinking they must be some of Gill's entries.

So Calvin did what Calvin does, his classic inside move. As you can see, the incident brought on a Steward's inquirey.

[Acertainsmile]

Awesome! :lol:

Yup, that's my ratty nag Plug! She gets her homely looks from her grandsire, CanUSpareSomeChange.

[ThisTooShallPass]

What a memorable year that was, with CanUSpareSomeChange & his regular rider Chris McCarron sweeping the nation with this famous marketing campaign that got everyone physically involved with racing!
