Mine That Bird and Rachel A
(to the tune of Romeo and Juliet by Dire Straits)

A shellshocked MTB makes a backstretch promanade
Laying everybody low with the whinnies that he made
Finds a awning steps into the shade
Says something like you and me Rach how about it?

Rachel A says hey it's MTB you nearly gimme a heart attack
He's standing down the shedrow she's singing hey la my gelding's back
You shoudn't come around here calling out to fillies like that
Anyway what you gonna do about it?

Rachel A that race was loaded from the start
Then I lost, and it's surely broken my heart
Now don’t I get, don’t I get another one
When you gonna realize it was just that the track was wrong
Rachel A

Came up from different stakes and both our stakes we claimed
Both hungry both lean yes and our jock was just the same
Till I raced that race with you and now your suit is trumps
How can you look at me as if I was just another one of your chumps?

When you can run for plates of silver you can run for cups of gold
You can run with Calvin Bo-rail and the promises he’s told
He promised me everything, he promised me thick and thin
Now he just says oh MTB yeah you know I used to have a scene with him

Rachel A when we locked up you had to try
If that stretch had been a few more feet you know I’d have gone by
Now there's a race for us, you know the Travers one
When you gonna realize it was just that the track was wrong.
Rachel A

I can't do the talk like Todd Schrupp on TVG
And I can't do a racecall like the way its meant to be
I can't race everywhere but I'd race anywhere with you
I can't do anything except be race with you

And all I do is miss you and the way we used to be
All I do is take a beat from bad company
All I do is beg you through the bars of this rhyme
Rachel I'd make a start with you any time

Rachel A when we locked up you had to try
If that stretch had been a few more feet you know I’d have gone by
And there's a race for us, the BC Classic one
When you gonna realize it was just that the track was wrong
Rachel A

And a shellshocked Mine That Bird makes a backstretch promanade
Laying everybody low with the whinnies that he made
Finds a convenient awning steps into the shade
And says something like you and me Zen how ‘bout it?

A reply from Rachel:

"Thanks for taking the time to tell me how much you miss me. Believe it or not I only live a few 100 yards away from you right now. Come by and visit and maybe we can have a little run around the Oklahoma track. I do remember the last time we met. They put that blanket of pretty yellow flowers on me and everyone cheered. You were never going to get by me no matter if we went around the track another time. Our buddy Calvin already knew who the better runner was."

"Anyway, I would like to meet up again. There was a little $1.25M G-I in NJ where I saw some of your friends from Belmont but you didn't show up. I read that your trainer said that your chances of beating me would be compromised by running 9F on a speed favoring track. I guess that's why he took you to a G-II race worth a half mil less to run 9F on a track that favored speed all day long. Oh well, things don't always work out the way the boss man thinks they will. So good luck in the Travers. I have seen this Quality Road guy and he looks pretty good. Maybe I'll have to beat him later this year too."

"P.S. Please don't turn into a stalker. I know you are a gelding so you have no shot at anything other than a race. Also if you do go to California this Fall say 'Hi" toZenyatta for me. I know you will have plenty of time to talk as you trail down the backstretch side by side at Santa Anita."

Fondly,
Rachel.
