If Cohen doesn't float the horse 3 wide on the final turn, they win the race.

frustrating day. I could've had the tri.

Someone tell Cohen to keep looking through his legs, he thought he had that horse pegged and couldn't go by. He tried to be cute and got f#cked, the #6 should have taken that race, IMO


-bt-

I have been no where near the wire today and thankfully I have not played much. I will play Time to honor in the 10th.

If Cohen doesn't float the horse 3 wide on the final turn, they win the race.

I think Cohen's biggest mistake was not making the lead. This horse cant win without. Should have been gunned to the lead, he has run faster than Latent Heat ran today. Proud Tower had it today and would have been the winner with a more aggressive jockey.

Watched PTT in his last two races and when he turns for home he raises his head high like he can't get air. He had the best position setting on the outside of the pace setter and couldn't go by.

Gander you are right on the money. At 7 furlongs the speed wins.

Proud Tower Too needs the lead. Its really that simple. I have no doubt he would have won tonight had he outsprinted Prado's horse early. I dont think he would have let Latent Heat by.

Race 10

$5 EX 8/1,6
$2 TRI 8/1,6/1,3,6
$20W 8

lost connection and i see that that i'm still 0 for 500 betting on anything valdivia rides. the 6 and 1 are there. That useless piece of **** is nowhere to be found.

Saratoga can't get here any sooner.

If Gryder was on PTT...he never looks back:mad:

Has the jockey colony ever been this bad in SoCal? I can't recall it being this horrible.

At seven furlongs tactical speed wins... Latent Heat is simply a better horse than PTT at 7f. Cut back to 6f and you have a whole different animal. What will be interesting is how he does when he stretches out in the Met. I think the best is yet to come.

Where did Proud Tower Too run faster?

I played the wrong Malibu winner. :mad:

I don't understand the rides on PT2,or TT2.Looks like Valdivia kept TT2 from getting involved early.I mean the pace is what 22.53? WTF are you doing? You're 13-1.Go take your shot.You sure won't get this horse interested from back there.You gotta be no more than a length back into the turn.He probably isn't good enough,but you sure didn't give him a shot to show what he had.Then,we have the gem of a ride by Cohen.WTF is this guy looking behind his right shoulder(on the backstretch) for?????Prado goes right by down at the rail,and Cohen is looking for others(outside of himself??)....LOL......When did this genius decide that PT2 is a presser? He gave Prado the lead going 22.53,and expected to run him down?? This is an odd race (to me.)If ever there was a case where guys are thinking too hard,it was this race.Stick to your horse's style.I want to see what happens if PT2 IS ALLOWED TO LEAD INTO THE TURN.....with TT2,and LH pressing.This is the race we expected.Too bad we got 2 guys too scared to let their horses run.

Where did Proud Tower Too run faster?

I was referring to the early splits. Proud Tower Too has run faster than the splits that Cohen allowed Latent Heat to run in this race. An aggressive jockey could have easily made the lead with Proud Tower Too and I believe he would have been very hard to run down. Looked like he had his A game today but he is a need the lead type. A very good need the lead type, but still no way is this horse a stalker.

As an additional thought, Proud Tower Too is just as good at 7F as he is 6F. That extra furlong was not the problem. He was a winner today at 7F had he simply made the lead.

All I know is that these horses are good enough that the horse who gets the lead going 22.53 is gunna win........f'n period..

You can be sure that he wont make the same mistake in Dubai in just over a month. He goes out winging early on that straightaway, that you can be sure of. Wont be much of a price.

I wouldn't be surprized to see someone else riding PTT. I understand that David doesn't have the best morning work ethic and he has a new agent as of last week.
