I had to turn it off after about 2 1/2 minutes, I couldn't take it anymore. Is it safe to tune back in?

Default John White

Guys and Gals, i know i'm in the minority here but i think John is right-on with his picks.Garrett Gomez, and his agent both decided Potn over Dunkirk, with the supposely upside in dunkirk's favor, they must know something to take this choice for GG's first Derby Win.

i think you're giving the jock and his agent too much credit. if GG was that good at picking his ride, he'd have won a derby before now....

we've all seen jocks go one way rather than another-how often are they right? i'm thinking garrett went with the trainer he will deal with more often throughout the year...and don't forget where this years bc is located-or which horse has shown an affinity for that surface.

Its not the pick I can't stand........Its the five minute run-on sentence professing his love for POTN. Until this man crush started I really enjoyed JW's segments.

I will admit he's a little over the top with POTN, but he gives so many points on other horses it does make you think , and he seems to always have thought out any opinions he has right or wrong and compares them to picks or races similar in the past he has made or watched,i love the guy, and when my wife is with me out on a trip she loves him, his soft-spoken voice puts her to sleep ..lol
