Hi everybody, it is Thanksgiving Day! I’m enjoying my extra day off, and I am planning to doing something fun that’ll probably involve a bike ride and seeing something new in Trenton I haven’t seen yet.
You write new post at Thanksgiving?

Eugene - great story about you and “Shoe”. I wasn’t born until many years after that Derby but I have seen footage MANY times and I would have to agree with you guys - no way Iron Leige loses.

If Cullen was involved in that race… nevermind… I digress…

IRON LIEGE I REALLY LIKED THAT NAME> BECAUSE I HAD A LARGE ONE ON HIM

CALUMET HAD THE STRONGEST ENTRY IN GENERAL DUKE & IRON LIEGE FOR THE 1957 KY DERBY BUT THE STRONGEST PART OF THE ENTRY WAS “GENERAL DUKE” & HE WAS SCRATCHED IN THE MORNING…AND IRON LIEGE GOT THE JOB DONE BY WINNING BY A NOSE OVER “GALLANT MAN”..EVERYBODY & THE KITCHEN SINK IS STILL SAYING “SHOE” WAS AT FAULT . YES HE DID STAND UP & MISJUDGE THE FINISH (70 YRD POLE ) BUT HE NEVER BROKE STRIDE..
SOME YEARS AGO IN SARATOGA, SHOE & I WERE WAITING IN FRONT OF THE
SHERATON RENAISSANCE FOR GEORGE STEINBRENNER TO PICK US UP AS “SHOE” & GEORGE WERE GOING TO DRIVE SOME HARNESS HORSES IN SOME EXHIBITION RACES AT SARATOGA RACEWAY THAT NIGHT..WELL GEROGE WAS RUNNING A LITTLE LATE & ALL “SHOE & I TALKED ABOUT WAS “GALLANT MAN” & “IRON LIEGE” “SHOE” SAID THAT “GALLANT MAN” NEVER BROKE STRIDE & NEVER COULD GET BY “IRON LIEGE” IF THEY WENT AROUND AGAIN & HE IS SICK & TIRED OF HEARING ALL THE WHINERS AS THEY WILL NEVER STOP.. AND YES I WAS THERE IN THE “YESTERYEAR”

SOORY IT TOOK SO LONG

You mean the Uniagent Manifesto? I guess its all the fault of the people who he stole from. Out to ruin his good reputation, huh? They should all be so grateful for what he’s done for them. Just seems like a lot of people who got taken and ONE Jim Cullen. He’s like any common criminal, sorry for he got caught, not sorry for the deed. The last paragraph should be in a dictionary under “hypocrisy”

Brian, i was offered a piece of that yearling as well and backed out in the last minute - he got me on a bunch of other stuff though. I too will never see my money, but I sleep well at night in knowing Cullen is done in this industry.

Brian R, Nice to see that Terry “no comment” Finley advised his investors to stay away from Cullen.

This was my first experience with Cullen. I got involved with him because he was pinhooking a yearling that was a half to Lears Princess. Since I owned a piece of the Princess I felt the opportunity would be fun and hopefully profitable. I sent a check for $8500 for a 10% share and she sold for $165000. I am due $16500 and have not recieved a penny despite numerous promises from him. I went to T.O.B.A and then Keeneland and a lawyer. It is nice to see that the little guy gets some help in an industry that unfortunatley has some bad apples in it. Probably will never see my $$$$ but will keep on trying to get it.
