Kent D up to old tricks?
 

Okay, no one was going to beat the 2 horse at Aqueduct in Race 7 but why does Kent D. have to take a horse 6-7 wide in a 5 horse field??

Plus he gets left in the gate yesterday in the night cap yesterday.
And this guy is a Hall of Famer?

Why can't a jock get days for stuff like that?????

Go back to the replays and watch the ride he gave the 1 horse in the 4th race yesterday. Its bizarre. Down the backside I thought he was suffering a problem and was gonna be pulled up. Then after no aggression at all, he suddenly springs to life on the horse and goes up the rail to get the place.
I don't think he himself knows what hes doing out there.

I think Channing Hill rode that horse.

Wow, good info, I had Kent listed on that horse. Just looked it up on equibase and it was indeed Hill. Ok, then Hill sucks, lol.

To be honest, I didn't realize who rode him until I saw the chart. On the other hand, I rarely ever know who rides horses unless I have to specifically check later.

I handicapped all the BC races using the advance Formulator pps, which didn't have jockeys listed, and I never knew who was riding any horse BC Day.

Frankly, they all suck, who cares.

Though, when Bernardini made a premature move I knew it had to be Castellano!

I agree with everything you say. I even had the balls to single Chantal yesterday because the horse just looked so good.
Further irony, I played a late pik-3 singling the Dutrow monster and using Stolen Star as a press and saving with Fuego Grande in the 8th(didn't like Montauk's last race at all) into 7 horses in the last race because I hate the hanging fave Bronxdale. I just spent 30 seconds screaming " COME ON DESORMEAUX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" from the turn to the wire.
The old expression or cliche that the minute you badmouth a rider they will win is a pretty accurate one.
I was pretty red faced after the race was over to have been screaming for Kent to keep his horse going(which he did) and pretty red faced to have to admit this after just erroneously ripping him for a bad ride that he didn't even give on this same thread. I pretty much just obtained idiot status.
Now if Bronxdale can just keep hanging like the chandelier that he is............

Speaking of "monsters" how about INDIAN WAR DANCE (3rd)
looks like "inner-stakes" for him!

Desormeaux's mood n' emotions are woman-like.He is just not going to be as reliable as some jocks.He certainly is a very good rider on some days.Take for instance that day that they had that marathon at Aqueduct. He was very confident etc. that day.I would never put much money on any one horse he is riding.

He cracked me up at Saratoga when he was in the paddock and someone was screaming at him for a terrible ride in the previous race when his horse ran second and he just looked at the heckler calm as can be and said "I had money on the winner". Of course, for how terrible some of his rides have been he may have been telling the truth.
