That 3yr. old is one bad cat. He might be as good or better than anything I have ever seen. Could not understand the announcer. What is his name, his trainer, owner and was he showed at the celebration?

Ed, his name is Mr. Heisman ridden by Brandye Mills. (named was changed during the season--was Heart's Desire by JFK--I THINK(?) Not sure how he tied at the Celebration.....seems like he was disqualified from showing back, but I could be wrong.

Not positive, but I think he won his class and was ticketed coming out, thus preventing the showing back.

Mr. Heisman (I like the name Heart's Desire SO much better) is just magnificent. I agree that he may be the best horse that I have ever seen and he just keeps getting better. He is just a dream horse and I can't imagine how awesome it would be to own him. He makes chills down my back every time I watch him. Beautiful!!!!

I think he's a real nice horse, BUT I like to see a three year old with more swing. He's pretty square.
I have my doubts as to whether he'll ever do any more than he's doing. (maybe that's enough?)
JMHO

I agree with you, Smitty. Super Nice, but an awful lot like a shoe box. I'm guess he is by JFK not only because of his original name, but because of the way he goes. He is doing the EXACT SAME lick JFK did as a 2,3, and 4 yr old. Unfortunately, by the time he was old enough for the open ranks and stake competition, working in such a bind at a young age seemed to have taken something out of him. Just my opinion here folks.

Brandye's horse is really a top horse and I like him alot but I think the horse that won the 3 yr. old Championship Copperfield was one of the BEST horses on the showgrounds.He and Strolling Thru The Ritz were the Best I saw there.I thought the 3 yr.olds were the BEST div. this yr.

I'll throw my 2 cents in.....

Mr. Heisman. is good... REAL GOOD. But others have already stated the obvious. He has no swing and no where else to go. He reminds me of his daddy and ol' Pushover. He may not need to do anymore.

I thought the best horse at the Celebration was the Vida Blue horse.

Thanks for the videos. Looks like they had a good show. Some of the classes were big. I have never seen so many horses going with their ears pinned back in all my life. They sure don't look happy with their work when they go like that.

I'm glad they had a great show. I wish I was there watching it first hand. Congrats to all the exhibitors and horses! I loved the stake horse Jailtime. Can't wait to see more of him in the future. 2 Thumbs Up!

I guess this is a good place to put this. I don't know how many of you have seen the Freak of the Week video from the Chat that Tommy has also put on FB.It is a colt with Jerry Beatty from Leech Stables riding.I think his name is Gambino,he is by The Gangster .He was raised by our very own The late Tony Carter.He is a shore nuff good'un now.Check him out on the Chat or FB.

Thanks ya'll - I didn't know ya'll had posted bout Tony's colt when I posted.
I guess he is smiling up there right now - but it sure does make me sad to see this colt and my Tony gone. If there was ever a person living who deserved to own a good one it was MakethCut. I know that I sound like a broken record but I miss him REAL BAD!!

Subject: horse video Sat Nov 20, 2010 11:33 am

He was a SUPER guy.I always enjoyed talking to him online and when I'd see him at the Cele..He reminded me the first time I saw him in yrs. I guess it was 5 or 6 yrs ago that we knew each other yrs. ago.I know you miss him and you can say as much as you want.We loved and love you and know you miss him.

BD, I know exactly what you mean, Tony will always own Gambino in our minds...forever linked!

Subject: Re: Horse Video Sat Nov 20, 2010 12:07 pm

Thanks Ya'll -MM - Tony had named "gambino" DAWG WALKING.

I watched that video and it broke my heart to think how much Tony deserved to own and enjoy such a good one. BD I know you must miss him terribly. It is okay to share that with us because we miss him too.

Subject: Re: Horse Video Sat Nov 20, 2010 6:41 pm

Thanks ya'll. The saddest thing to me is that he spent years and years trying to breed a "good'un" - and now it's too late. I really appreciate Tommy Williams mentioning on the Chat that Tony raised this colt. I know that he is smiling down but it makes me cry. I think I'm gonna go to Jerry Beatty's and give those colts a little pat.
