Shartin Named US Horse of Year

I bet her Kiwi breeder will be thrilled. 

 

Also Greenshoe Trotter of the year. He didn't win the big ones due to some really effed up luck but IMO he was one of the greatest if not the best. Many over here thought of him being better than Muscle Hill.  Even Brian Sears who drove Muscle Hill said that Greenshoe had gears that horses don't have.  One or two over here thought that he could trot 47 and change on his ear. How insane that would have been for a trotter to do that. 

 

The biggest mistake was he got a week or two off before the Hambo where he had to race twice. That was his undoing. He nearly broke three times and was too fresh. I think had he raced the week before, he wins the Hambo for fun.

 

U guys need to get some frozen semen down there because he was poetry in motion. Just a machine with the speed of top pacers. A freak.

 

His brother sold for 1.1 million and they are raving about how good he is going to be later on this year.

A relative or shartin that qualified about a month ago looks like it's gone to Australia.
