Ummmm

There's just a slight difference. When Cordero was on the speed going 2 turns at SAR, you weren't passing him in the stretch. This is because he actually was able to help his horses get to the wire. He, thus, was able to 'race ride'; as he could back it up when it counted. Jocks that can't finish with octogenarians (like Borel) really should just stick to riding 'normally'. Saving ground should be their top priority as they really can't make up for any ground loss late.

Second, redboarding methinks. Where prior to the PE did you mention that Persistently was a viable candidate to beat Raitch?

And, you talk about people being "halfway civilized" followed up by "screw you, blah, blah, blah. Get your doctor to change your meds or look up the meaning of hypocrite.

I never inteneded to suggest that I bet on Persistently-I passed the race

And, I was quite aware of the irony of me speaking to such folks in the only language they seem to understand

I'll apologize for my equally emotionally charged, juvenile remarks, though. I should look at a horse race wagering environment as an adult venue. As when I'm in a bar or nightclub, I should notexpect or even want Catholic school manners, nor ask them not to smoke, make crude jokes, etc

I stand corrected, Princess Doreen

I know all about "fetlock joint" there's one about 3 blocks from Saratoga. Weds. they have half priced drafts. Try the spicy wings!! The best:tro:

gotta love seeing those silks cross the line first. mr phipps hasn't been in great health lately, and he's pushing 70 now i think....glad he got another personal ensign under his belt. the sport could use a few more like him, instead of some of these other owners.
