Friesan Fire excuse?
 

Friesan Fire was severely compromised by getting stepped on coming out of the gate. Though he raced in seventh position and in the clear down the backside, he backed up around the far turn under Gabriel Saez. Friesan Fire came back to the unsaddling area with blood emanating from his left front foot. He had part of his left front foot ripped off, known as grabbing a quarter.

"He got hit real bad leaving the gate," Jones said as he walked back to the barn. "He's bleeding. If you see blood on the track, it's his."

I know alot of people will say the layoff did him in, but this kind of injury is painful and will make a horse not run. Man, I feel bad for Larry Jones, I wanted him to win bad.

Yes he got shredded even had a cut on his ear not to mention his legs....

Your talking about Fresian Fire or Ricky Hatton???

It was all good when this PLUG was getting perfect trips and winning. Sucks when **** doesn't go ALL your own way sometimes.

Anyone who bet this horse should be required to read all the literature out there on the BOUNCE. :rolleyes:

Have a couple toenails ripped off and see how well YOU run. Even with adrenalin running strongly, the pain starts to get to you soon enough.

Ya it didnt go the way they wanted for the other 18 either. You are talking about a BOUNCE with a horse who got slashed and bled. Now really

Is this just your best guess from the information given, or was this information given out by the Larry Jones camp?

It sounds like you are saying it as fact, when in reality you are bullshitting (unless you have an inside source of information).

Nah it's similar to the nonsense bullshit you splatter from your anus everytime you mount your ass on your keyboard

classless bullshit, classless bullshit, classless bullshit, classless bullshit, classless bullshit, classless bullshit, classless bullshit, classless bullshit, classless bullshit, classless bullshit, classless bullshit, classless bullshit, classless bullshit, classless bullshit, classless bullshit, classless bullshit.

that's one long fart out of your ass

You are getting more retarded by the day.

Your theories about drafting being more than adequate compensation for taking up and have nowhere to run is one thing, but this is an entirely new level up dumbness.

I now rank you as the most ludicrous poster on here. You are now ahead of even SDJCOM (who has greatly improved) and RB.

I think you are starting to make PG1985 look like a genius.

You got to stop with him.. Please.

It's the hat talking.

Jones' hat? What's under it?

He'll win The Belmont easily if he sits out the Preakness.

Jones will blow him out 3f in 33 right before the race since he figures it worked for RISEN STAR.

and then LARRY F'n JONES will dress up like Papa Clem again and knock the **** out of him? :D

I personally don't think it's BS. The horse was slammed at the start which hurt his chances of getting to the front of the field. He's a horse that needs to be near the front. He didn't get there and probably didn't respond well to the dirt/mud in the face. Not to mention the grabbed quarter.

Friesan Fire Green Cap, Green Blinkers/Hood

#7 Papa Clem(yellow cap) bumps Friesan Fire out of the gate possibly stepping on his right front and definitely knocking him to our right.





As a result of the collision with Papa Clem, Friesan Fire was probably kicked about here by #5 Hold Me Back(white blaze). Larry Jones said that the horse was bleeding on his LEFT FRONT HOOVE.
If this is the actual Hoove to Hoove impact, i was lucky, - it could have been from Papa Clem directly, or any of the frames around here or a few frames later when the traffic bunches, or in the gate...

So he grabbed a quarter and he is probable for The Preakness? Or is that just internet crap?

maybe he only grabbed a nickels worth? ;)

TRM (The Fat Man) is spreading the rumor that Friesan Fire is a go for the Preakness.

The excuse is.....he's not Hard Spun

I snorted...

Why? Do you not believe that he could have grabbed a quarter? Do you even acknowledge that he encountered trouble at the start, that led to his poor performance? Or do you think it's the trainer just coming up with excuses why his horse ran so poorly?
As far as the Preakness goes, I personally think that there is no shot of him running there.

It seems like an axe to grind with Jones. Similar to Fat Man's quickness to jump into the "I told you he never had encountered trouble" role...

I must really suck(come on guys slow morning and that was a hell of a setup),

... but I am just now getting a grasp of all these trips from the derby.
Overhead cam , headon cam and pan angles not withstandind.

Today's New York paper either the Post or Daily News lists him as probable. So either the injury was extremely minor or they don't give a crap about the horse. After last year's tragedy with EIGHT BELLES I doubt they would do wrong by the horse. So it looks like he got some interference that hampered his start but not unlike many go through in that race. So maybe he wasn't as good as people thought. needs to be in the clear away from dirt or slop hitting him or left his race in the barn with the layoff and fast work.

EDIT ALERT.......Here's The NY Post link...http://www.nypost.com/seven/05052009...ess_167722.htm

apparently FF connections didnt rule it out since even Steve has him as a possibility.

You are now ahead of even SDJCOM (who has greatly improved) and RB.
 

Thanks for the roses, have we argued before and had verbal fights i don't remember you.

Hey, its nice to be significant even in some ass backwards kind of way.
