Manhattan Moni, Sunday, August 11th at Pocono Downs
Quote from Lonnie on August 9, 2024, 9:36 PMAre any of my fellow partners in Manhattan Moni going to be at Pocono Downs on Sunday night?
I'm traveling from New York City with my friend and co-owner. We hope to see everyone in the Winners Circle!
12-1 Morning Line? Hah! We mock that line.

We must never violate Rule #1. Ever! Thank you for the well wishes! Much appreciated. I'll be trackside, and I'll post on Monday, as I imagine I will be getting home early Monday morning.

Quote from Lonnie on August 12, 2024, 9:57 AMManhattan Moni gave us quite a thrill at 38-1(!). She took the lead easily, and the fractions were very favorable, and tired just in the last 16th. It was worth the drive to Pocono Downs.
Also racing yesterday for us was Prince Charmer, who continues to race very well for us and had closing 3rd.
All-in-all, a good racing day! Wait until tomorrow! Which is tonight and Luvin Affection's second start for us.

As you have likely seen by now, Anthony reported that MM scoped full of mucous post-race. Understandable that he tired late.
I have learned much this summer about horses and allergies in the June-August heat.
If I ever decide to go out on my own with a young horse, I wonder if I will have the patience to wait to race it in the fall of freshman campaign and then go for some late closer series over the winter like TheStable did with Timeisonmyside. Seems the competition softens up a bit and you give a young horse an opportunity to physically mature.

Yes, and it makes sense why he tired. Once he gets cleaned up, I think you'll see a better horse. I feel like he's got some wins inside him soon.

I don't think I could have only one horse. Waiting for when they're ready, and then waiting a week between races, would surely test my resolve. Especially after a bad start.
Though we currently have nine now we still check the boards daily for overlays. I missed out on a few, and there doesn't appear to be any now, it's only a matter of time until another one pops up.
