Default C Nak has finally arrived

.....cause he is on TMZ!!!



Famous Jockey Has Serious Race Issues
Posted Jan 22nd 2009 3:40AM by TMZ Staff

One of the world's most famous jockeys is more pissed than a race horse -- claiming he's been saddled with an unfair suspension for allegedly trying to screw up a race.

Corey Nakatani was suspended for three days after a January 15th race at Santa Anita in which he allegedly "failed to put forth his best effort to maintain a straight course" -- in other words, he's accused of intentionally trying to cut off another horse.

Now, Nakatani has filed a lawsuit against the California Horse Racing Board claiming the ruling is total horse s**t -- and that his suspension is "illegal, erroneous, not in the best interest of racing, and violates [Nakatani's] right to pursue his livelihood."

Nakatani is asking the court to issue a stay of the board's ruling, pending a hearing, so Nakatani may continue to race. His suspension is scheduled to begin Friday -- this might be a photo finish.

I hope they show Solis kicking Nakatani's ass again on that new Jockey show.

Weird.

Were you unfortunate enough to attend WCHS?

Yea, but that was before they closed Edgewood High School. South Hills High got almost all rich kids. West Covina High got a little bit of everything, and Edgewood got mainly unteachables. Then, they closed Edgewood, and sent those fine students to WCHS. I'm sure it took a toll on WCHS.

I think Bejarano is mildly retarded.
