  • Bobby Neumann Waste of Time & Space

    The epically mediocre Bobby Neumann is a worthless, spineless, puppet. His “talent?” Using 40 thousand words to non explain a topic, where three sentences would do. He is horrible. A waste of a human being and time. Who gave this jerkoff a microphone. This show has devolved into nothing. Listening to this horror show should be employed by the military in lieu of waterboarding. Pure torture.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

HRRN’s I Ask, They Answer - September 5, 2026
Q: What does the group think about Magnitude's 11-1 odds in the future pools, given his Dubai and Whitney results?
The vibe is that Magnitude is a risky, potentially overrated choice due to course fit and the field's strength, but if he shows a strong prep, those odds could tighten considerably by the Classic, making him an intriguing longer-odds wager.
HRRN’s I Ask, They Answer - September 5, 2026
Q: Am I right that the East Coast turf program is more robust than the West Coast, and does that influence how horses travel to Del Mar for big races?
Yes, the panel consensus is that the East Coast hosts a stronger turf ecosystem with more lucrative stakes and a larger pool of turf horses, which influences form cycles and travel decisions when horses head to Del Mar for major events.
HRRN's Equine Forum presented by TwinSpires -September 12, 2026
Q: What makes Notable Speech a likely challenger in the Woodbine Mile?
Notable Speech is a durable, consistent turf performer with strong form that compares well with Deterministic and other European challengers, making him the horse to beat, though Deterministic's speed and versatility could complicate things.
HRRN’s I Ask, They Answer - September 12, 2026
Q: What's a more difficult accomplishment going two weeks into the Preakness after the Kentucky Derby, then three weeks to the mile and a half test of the champion, or the way it's set up now, going three weeks and one day after the Derby to the Preakness, and then only 13 days to the mile and a half Belmont Stakes?
The panel suggests the Belmont would be the tougher leg of the Triple Crown under the current schedule, with the 13-day turnaround to the mile-and-a-half distance posing a significant challenge.
HRRN's Trainer Talk presented by Fasig-Tipton - Oscar Barrera III
Q: How did Bandmaster come to be in this position to compete at Spinaway?
Oscar discusses Bandmaster's developmental path from maiden to graded stakes, the decision to keep the filly at the track and under the same team, and the belief that she can close strongly into a competitive field, especially given her inside post and recent training momentum.
