Whos riding rags to riches?
 

ive heard Jamie Spencer, Mick Kinane, Chris Decarlo, and Javier Castellano

did this really require a separate thread?

Personally I feel this issue deserves its own room.

I'm saying Javier

Per DRF, Greg Fox has released Johnny V from his commitment to Slew's Tizzy and he will be aboard Rags to Riches.

NT

there goes that idea of Spencer

Seattle here is a better question???


Who is your pick for the Belmont??


Let us know early so we know who to not pick:D

Slightly off topic here, maybe BTW can help me... Is Migs coming back east to ride Out of Time in the Babae Stakes the day before the Belmont?? I see on Equibase that it's his only mount, will he ship for just that one??

No, he's coming in to ride Bordonaro in the True North and since Hollywood runs Friday night he figured he could take some extra time to be with his family.

Now I normally root for the girl in a race like this, but since John V. opted to ride her instead of Tizzy, He can go suck my big toe. I hope she comes in second looking at Tizzy's hindquarters.

I am a cranky girl today. STILL NO FRIGGEN AC. Oh they say it is working but BARELY. They are replacing it this weekend. It is going to be a LONG week!

Shane Laviolette might be available.

:p :mad: :p

Tough decision for JV. LOL

Sorry, Buffy...

I have heard that GPK is available to 'ride', but his first choice really was the filly. :D

I'd take Castellano or even Talamo over JV or Prado right now. . .

If you can get Prado in this race you would be foolish to not take him in my opinion.
Look at what he did with Sarava and Birdstone.

To Everything....Turn Turn
 

Johnny V will ride rags as reported by DRF & BH. Wonder what the deal was for the Tizzy connections who has named Bejarano?

Maybe this belonged in the "Who is riding Rags to Riches" thread.
Does everything about this filly have to have its own thread?
Hmmmmmmmm I wonder what her favorite day of the week is? Maybe I'll go start a thread about it.

Prado is back on CP West

LOL wow shane gets alotta love here. hes not the greatest but i will defend him some. first and foremost hes a good guy and anytime you ask him to work 1 for ya in the morning he will show up on time. yes he has struggled the last couple years but he basically lost his main barn in tomillo.

He better ride that horse well or I will personally go to NY and kick his azz. :D

He was being mean to me Playa. He knows I love Tizzy.

some pics of his daddy for you buffy.

I love that blaze and snip! Thanks for posting those Pais. I am hoping his son runs this weekend like he did in his BC Classic wins.

Tiznow is a really beautiful horse. He looks like he is about to dapple out on his shoulder.


I like that his son got a little of that blaze. :)

Gotta get through ( or around) me in order to get to him...lol

And I much I hated going to NY I will go there to kick his azz. I don't think anyone will get in my way. :D

(clears throat)... This man enabled me to get my first car, my black on black GTI, with his pace setting ride on Intercontinental in the BC a few yrs back. Rides like that should not be forgotten, and won't be, as long as I'm alive.. Some of his rides can be deemed head scratching, but he has a lifetime get out of $hit card with me...

Just saying I don't want him to screw it up. If horse isn't good enough, that is one thing, but if he is good enough and a crappy ride causes his loss, then I will be mad.

Given ST's tactical speed, I expect RB to have him right on or near the pace...I would love if he just crawled along the front end and took off with Hard Spun when he makes his move... Whether or not he can get the distance remains to be seen... Hopefully it works out well for both of us, as I always throw some sort of wager on Bejarano's charge.. Thinking about keying ST in bottom two spots of tri's and supers ,as I can't see him holding off Curlin's bid for the wire... GL Buffy

I can see it. :) GL to you. But like I have stated in the past, if Curlin is the monster some say he is then the rest of the horses are racing for 2nd place.

I have a feeling that should Slew's Tizzy not win the Belmont, it probably won't have anything to do with Bejarano's ride.

i think willie shoemaker could get a pass from god to come down from heaven to ride slew's tizzy, and it wouldn't help....

You guys go ahead and doubt. Better odds for me.

The jockeys hes listed wont win a race for the next month

Johnny V.....
 

Has done nothin lately but throw crappy ride, after crappy ride! He's still a great rider however, and will problably break outta his slump, not sayin she wins, but he'll give her a good ride.
