Stay and beat up on the regular colony? Surely you are kidding...guys like Prado...Velazquez...Velasquez...Bejarano...Castell ano....are much better than Dominguez and it shows...watch what happens when they come back up north...he will go hiding back At Delaware where he can win all those 5k claiming races....I am sure he isnt stupid enough to try and stick around....he never does...

It's horse racing friend not jockey racing. When he rode at Saratoga full time 2 years ago his mounts weren't nearly as live as any of Edgar or Johhny's and therefore just didn't have the stock to compete with those guys. You put Ramon on Edgar's horses and he definetly would not have had as many wins but he sure would have been up near the top of the standings. The reason he goes to Delaware is because of the stock he has down there where he can ride the top horses 70 percent of the races. I wouldn't be suprised though if he stayed after the inner meet as he was going to last year but made a late decision to go back to Delaware.
