I'm sure he was just venting.

But hey, I'd take JB over GG in a second.

No comment works well

I disagree.

These freakin dumbass pinhead jocks need to get blasted publicly way more often.

I don't think GG was why that horse lost today.

I thought it was Classic.

1. I never said he was.
2. It was a dumb ride.
3. Jocks tend to overthink things, and by overthink, I mean think at all.
4. As a result of #3, for most jocks, bad things are going to happen.

It was a well deserved and funny quip.

Just showed highlights of the major preps on sports center just now and said that Gomez landed a few punches on Espinoza before they were separated

I learned a new handicapping angle at the Santa Anita Derby today.

Go with the horse that has the most girls with blond hair in short dresses in the paddock.

I think everyone was pleased with the way the colt ran.

Gomez ride stunk up the place and he deserves the crap abuot his poor position of Looking at Lucky.

He put LAL in a place to be trapped and that's what happened.

Baffert should put Victor on Lookin at Lucky.

If he takes GG off the colt dosent he get the 1st call of Pletcher after JR stays aboard the Wood winner? Not a bad switch for GG.

Apparently Jill Baffert voiced her opinion to Espinoza in the paddock before a later race.

"Baffert was in the saddling area to oversee his three entries in another stakes race when Espinoza walked by. "Are you trying to kill my jockey?" he said.

Baffert's wife, Jill, then lit into Espinoza, asking why he tried to unseat Gomez. Espinoza repeatedly denied any wrongdoing as she continued her rant while her husband and fans watched."

She might be sleeping with GG

Jill?! Go on a crazy rant?


Never!

We all know the class act that is Jill Baffert. I better shut up or maybe Bob will threaten to have the site shut down.

Here is yet another article. After watching the replay, I think she and Gomez have a good point. That was pretty dirt on Espinoza's part.

You don't let an odds-on favorite force his way up inside of you at that point in the race.

Look at what Migliore and Cohen both did to an odds-on favorite in the Whirlaway. Migliore intentionally cut him off - veered inward sharply and got his own horse cut in the back leg - and Cohen went WAY out of his way to gun and intimidate going into the 1st turn.

What's Espinoza supposed to do - push the horse to his outside out and give Lookin At Lucky a VIP invite path up the rail because Gomez wanted to save ground? Saving ground is close to pointless on that track anyway.

Anyone who thinks Espinoza was totally out of horse at that point is kidding themselves .. you're never out of horse that early on synthetic. It's not like they were flying up front.

Doug, what is your opinion on Candy now? Im guessing the beyer is in the 100-105 range, and Im also thinking he can still improve first time dirt. Are you really going to jump off?

Right. I don't want my RETARDS trying to win races (which is hard enough for them) but, rather, I want them to be out there trying to **** with the other RETARDS. ****** demolition/roller derby. Any jock that intentionally hugs the rail on a tiring horse just needs to be fined. There's absolutely no justification for it.

:eek:For someone like yourself, who loves the syn-dirt move, are you not happy about this? LAL goes from the clear cut second choice, to maybe the 3,4 choice depening on the Arkansas Derby result.

do you still expect him to be 20-1?
