Pace was going too slow, which is not what they wanted, so middle move to nowheres land that never wins, then get over to the rail so the 8 could get by in the 2 path coming off the turn. I gotta go watch the mybigitalian replay and review what was going on there

You didn’t see Giant Zinger was rank going into the first turn? You didn’t see her throw her head? She was fighting Jose. She resisted being rated and predictably settled once she got clear.

But assuming the first part of what you say is correct (it’s not)...you think Jose knew Irad was going to go from 3 wide around the first turn and up the backstretch to the rail somehow? And then he knew Montdore was going to tire at just the right time for Irad to get through, so he could beat Competitionofideas by a neck?

Impressive.

He got an assist from Carmouche too who was nice enough to angle the 4 out a little to make sure the 8 could get through the hole Jose opened.

You should smoke more weed....or less. Whatever amount you’re smoking now is making you worse than normal.

I just think it’s hilarious that you ignore all of the facts I present and pretend you don’t see them. I shouldn’t have wasted my time.

I didn't think ginger was rank when she was sent. It looked like she had settled in third. To me if that wasn't Irad on the 8 , he would have made him go inside to get past, not give him the easy pass outside of him. I've seen this before with the brothers.

Willie Nelson going strong so I figure the more weed you smoke , the longer you live.

Do you at least acknowledge Ginger threw her head going into the first turn? That she seemed uncomfortable behind horses?

Have you watched the head on? I think if you do you’ll see the 4 was stopping and Irad slipped into the spot where she was. It was actually a great ride by Irad. From 3 wide on 1st turn and backstretch to pocket trip and moved at just the right time. Obviously his filly was the goods but his ride made the difference.

There are times when sometimes it can seem like there are games. A few years ago in the Beldame Irad moved out of the way as he was tiring so Elate could get through. That was a very bad look. This wasn’t one of those times IMO.

I feel like I need to add you’re looking for any reason to claim chicanery, as it relates to the Ortiz’s, Chad Brown and NYRA.

Confirmation bias at its finest.

I’ve found the worse I’m doing at the windows the more I want to think everything is a conspiracy. It’s not.

I singled the 8 in that race. Doesn't make it cool though.

I've never said anything about Chad Brown except $1.6 mill was a lot of money to owe the help. My complaints about NYRA are high takeout on some bets , Saratoga land and cash grab, not opening the late pick 5 to everyone and the idiotic .50 tri minimum. It's my opinion. If you have no problem with those things, that's your opinion.
They have had great racing on the biggest days and tomorrow is no exception. Met Mile is great field even if I liked it better on Memorial Day, it's hard to argue with the quality since the move.
