Funny Cide on the comeback trail.

[Zaf]

Sackatoga Stable's Funny Cide, one of the nation's most popular horses in recent years but a disappointment during the 2005 campaign, continues to show improvement under trainer Barclay Tagg's patient handling at Gulfstream Park.

The Kentucky Derby-Preakness (both gr. I) winner and 3-year-old champion of 2003 worked five furlongs in :58 1/5 handily Friday morning at Gulfstream ....

Is this horse the all-time workout champ or what?

Equibase lists 3 horses working faster than 1:00 were (b); the rest were (h).

It seems like he is ALWAYS on the "comeback trail"....lol.....poor Smarty :cool: I hope he can win a big one then maybe they can send him out to a nice farm. He's just not the same horse who was a superior three-year-old.

I hope he makes it back in good form, there isn't much out there in the way of older horses right now.

I just love this horse, With the money he has made, Im sure that"old Yellow Schoolbus" is cleaming and inside warm for the winter.
I dont care what you say CJ, This horse would be a superstar going around 1 turn and would settrack records IF they didnt let him run past 7/8. I know he has run huge races further BUT with his fast 5/8 works..Tells you he is really a sprinter in disguise..IMHO
