Buen Mozo, the colombian bred tries to break his maiden again at Golden Gate Fields

We had a fun thread about this Colombian Bred Horse. He´s entered 2 times this week so he´ll scratch out of one spot (or maybe scratch out of them both as you never know)

First looks like where he fits but he got a crappy post:
Activity date 01-01-2008
Track Golden Gate Fields
Surface All Weather Track
Distance 1 Mile
Race number 5
Purse $8,000
Claim price $8,000
Individual claim price $8,000
Race type Maiden Claiming
Post position 12
Jockey Gonzalez R M

Then his second entry is for the 3rd of January in a little more aggressive spot:
Activity date 01-03-2008
Track Golden Gate Fields
Surface All Weather Track
Distance 1 Mile
Race number 6
Purse $10,000
Claim price $12,500
Individual claim price $12,500
Race type Maiden Claiming
Post position 8
Jockey Gonzalez R M

Hope he can get his first win.

BTW, at the sports bar in Medellin we can show live video with audio for up to 3 tracks simultaneously and have a funded online wagering account you can tap into where you can get paid track odds. People asked me how we make any money off of that and I answered that I dont want to be a bookie, so we make a little money by selling booze and food and simply pocketing the small rebate from the online account and its nice for the customer that they can be a zillion miles away and get paid the same amount as if they were at the track, subject to the rules of the online account. Its friendlier as we rather youd win as we dont book it. Would be a nice atmosphere and fun for all on days like Breeders Cup, Kentucky Derby, etc.

Just saw this thread. I got an alert for the 1/1 race that Buen Mozo scratched out of but wouldn't have known about today's race if not for PBH! Gracias, spigrimace!

Was supposed to be in Bucaramnaga right now visiting an amiga for New Years but flight problems sent me back to Texas instead. At least now I will be able to head over to Lone Star Park this afternoon to watch the simulcast and bet the race.

If you know nothing about horse racing the title of this thread is kinda sexy.

Yeah!

Whoda thunk Colombia had horses running in horse races?

He's back! He'll be wheeled back out on 10 days rest, dropping in claiming price down to $8000 and stretching out to 1-1/16 miles. Have to think these are all good signs for his first win. It's the 5th race at GG on Sunday the 13th.

Corre, Buen Mozo! Break that maiden!
