That’s a hell of an accusation to make right after admitting that you exaggerated what the horse actually did in the first place.

Whoa...
Wait a minute here Freddy.
This is a solid post.
Yet it appears that you are writing it on a floater.
Are you one of those people that get sharper when you start consuming ?
You know...….like that episode of WKRP in Cincinnati years back when Dr. Johnny Fever appeared to get super focused and more coherent the more he drank ? :eek:

My comment was about society in general and not a direct shot at you.

Let me ask you a question. If you had to guess, what do you think Geroux's instructions were?

Be forwardly placed. Don't get into a speed duel is probably understood. Maybe even the first part was understood given that it was a Baffert horse, but I don't know. Mig saw Geroux's ride the same way Privman and others have. The moving out and then back in was legit.

Which horse was he interfering with? Noble Indy who wasn't fast enough to get up there in the first place? Last time I checked, you can't be expected to get out of the way for a slower horse. There's no 'after you, good sir' required in the process of getting a good position for your horse going into the first turn. If another horse gets there first, too bad.

As for the interfering's worse than a rabbit, uh no, the accusation was it was a set up (when really neither's wrong per se, just strategy). Well Repole was trying to do his own set up, and if his horse is too slow to make it happen, oh well. There wasn't interference. RH belonged where he was. This shouldn't be hard to understand unless there is Coburn-level sour grapes which is bad for the sport and needs to stop.

Noble Indy IS fast enough to "get up there."
