Watching this idiot ride makes me wonder how someone who actually rides regularly has absolutely ZERO clue when it comes to pace and setups. In R7, he effectively collapsed the race for the chalk, and the other late runners, while giving his horse NO chance to win. And, this is in a race where he's the stalker. Why bother stalking? Might as well just take the horse out in a suicidal duel or pace.
If his agent wasn't equally RETARDED, maybe he'd want to sit Blanc down and have him watch some tape of his masterpieces.

And, NO, I didn't bet the Mofo.

That's why I don't bet Jockies, when I bet I just hope I get a decent ride. In fairness I thought his ride on Visit was pretty good yesterday and infact much better than Gomez had done in all of his rides on her combined. Now can someone tell me what Talamo was doing setting the fractions with Pride Dancer? Drives you nuts at times.
