Idolmite 377 Report post Posted February 29 There hasn't been such an uninspiring Miracle Mile for many a year. Most of these wouldn't of even made the field of it wasn't for such an injury plagued season for harness horses..... 1 Gruff reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dockers 124 Report post Posted February 29 Agree field is worst in my memory. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Iraklis 778 Report post Posted February 29 Well thanks for those well chosen inspiring and uplifting words guys geezuz!.......that said, it is what it is guys, and yes field may have been robbed of those we consider should be there, however, it is not to be; instead we get to go with those horses who are available, and have been able to qualify. How bout instead of bemoanin the state of the field, we actually consider those horses who have made it in, as I'm sure their owners and connections are actually quite chuffed and proud to even have a horse runnin in the Miracle Mile! We have some Kiwi reps in the race and they have drawn quite well, although Alta Orlando coulda fared better (I'm not sure if he's still a Kiwi?) but, they all made it in and appear to be well! Lets hope for a well run Mile with a slashin time and enjoy the competition for chrissakes, yeh!

Another top horse bred by Peter and Ann Bagrie. Gee, he has had some quality animals over the years, going back to Orbiter, Burlington Bertie and The Mighty Quinn. The Chairman might have been as good as any of them but unfortunately broke down. 2 Iraklis and john legend reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gruff 1,588 Report post Posted March 7 That was a high pressure Miracle Mile, 54.8/53.3 , Alta Orlando burnt and then crossed by Dan then eventual winner King of swing, Lochinvar art made the mid race move from last to pressure the third quarter in 26.3... 1.48.1. Alto orlando a little unlucky but came home well,Good Viewing 2 mckenzie and Iraklis reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
