If the White House were involved at this board, they would undoubtedly float Trial Balloons, like the Gay Marriage Amendment Ban, etc. Just gonna let the real balloons go even if they are received like the plague.

Gilchrist is Nuts.

Quote Gilchrist:

"There are other races to look at, including one at Hollywood Park, but the timing is good, six weeks from the Aristides, to come back to Calder," Gilchrist said from Golden Gate Fields on Tuesday. "And I'm not really concerned with who else is coming. We've always thrown our hat in the ring and said, 'This is where we're going,' and it's up to the other people to decide whether they want to come or not. For the most part our decision will probably depend on the weights."

Greg, last year you ducked and dodged like a character from Dickenson's Oliver Twist. You ran against no one and stuck to 3YO conditional racing. Who are you trying to job?

"When I ran the horse the first time this year, it was a very difficult situation for any trainer to be in," said Gilchrist. "The whole day was built around Lost in the Fog, and I knew I was probably running a horse who was not where I wanted him to be for the race.

Really? Well next time start him in a conditional allowance and give him some bottom. Also try starting him up in February. "Probaby was running a horse not where he should be"? You dont' know? or Still dodging?

"He was a much different horse at Churchill Downs," said Gilchrist. "A lot fitter. And as a result the outcome was a lot better. I really think he'll even be a better horse the next time. I still don't think I had him dead fit last weekend. It takes racing to get him back into his game. Now he should be ready to really rock and roll next time."

The outcome was better because he was more fit? You couldn't run Carthage down by yourself in 10 tries you deceiver. He'll give you weight and still cold cock you.

Gilchrist said that if all goes according to plan he will run Lost in the Fog just two or three more times before his ultimate goal, which is to gain a measure of redemption in the Breeders' Cup.

Greg, a Barbaro racing schedule won't win you the Pot O' Gold. You've got to have a horse that can tote the load under open class pressure. Insulate yourself too much with picked spots and a light schedule and you won't get any closer to the fountain than Ponce de Leon.

This guy is only deluding one man. Well at least Harry is having some fun.
