Until he won a headbob on Flashmans Pepper on Thursday he was 0-19 period.
It would seem like there should be something wrong somewhere because the guy was winning on donkey's trained by anyone who could get his agents ear. Now he can't win on anything.....something is wrong with him but he hasn't been injured in a couple months....actually at least you don't have to include the guy in all multi's because his percentage was sick for a year.....

Trivia question......Who's the last jock to win all 4 California meets in a calendar year?? Only been done 4 times in history..

I remember a few years back at CD during the spring meet RB was like 2-53 on post time favorites. However, he was always 'live' when riding a price.

Not suggesting anything, just that I liked to bet him.

It's just that he won at an incredible clip for awhile. I remember what your saying which is why I didn't warm to him initially in So Cal

hope it's not due to Raffie becoming my friend on facebook? A delayed reaction from being hosed down with cologne by a ninja on a flight?

GPK 12-07-2008 05:36 PM

won 3 of the first 6 today...two $4 horses and one $5.

He must have snuck on here late and read your post Hooves.:rolleyes:

I don't know about Raffie, but someone get an APB out for Mike Smith in the 7th with Devils Afleet. Talk about mailing in a performance, a speed horse that showed no speed, a typical wide ride by his rider and no peserverance down the stretch. He may as well have taken the day off.

Raffie hurt my feelings in the 6th. I played Kasparoff's firster.

They've all been hurting my feelings lately, I would just like a rider to try every race and not only the big ones. :mad:

I haven't seen the head on yet but he certainly made room for the winner to get a clear run. I certainly am not advocating for more takedowns, but as a horseplayer it is confusing when a foul is indeed a foul and when it is not.

I have given up trying to figure that sh*t out. There is no consistency anywhere...plain and simple.
