Indy Rags dug in and fought every step of the way in a back-and-forth battle down the stretch. Just refused to lose. Absolute grit. @jockeyfranco gave him a tremendous ride and earned every inch of that win. Big credit as well to Team Kantarmaci for having him ready. That’s the kind of effort you love to see.
@ZillaStable @davidracingllc Congrats Mike, the win is a testament to you leading. The welfare of the horses always comes first and you took the time to get it right. When I came in on my first horse you said with you the owners always know where the horse stands and that’s the truth with Metatron.
If I post to X once a year and it’s lucky enough to be at Saratoga with these amazing horses then life is good. @ZillaStable @davidracingllc making it happen.
If your mascot isn’t a mustachioed alcoholic in lederhosen who lives in a chalet and frequently slides into a giant beer mug you’re not fucking trying hard enough.
Tough OBS sale, we were one of and often the underbidder on all of our premium prospects in the 125-150k range as they often pushed 170k+ and we stretched further on a couple. We had one horse we were hopeful could slip in the 50-60k range and checked more than enough boxes at that price. Welcome WILINGNESS to the squad.
