Actually it was because Toner drafted Payton Manning in the NYRA fantasy football league and told Lezcano that if he didn't trade Aaron Rodgers to him he was fired off of Winter Memories. Lezcano said the mount wasn't nearly enough to get him to trade Rodgers. Castellano quickly moved in and traded both Tom Brady and Andre Johnson to Toner for Manning and Tiki Barber who Jimmy took a late round flyer on.

Lezcano is only batting 11%, worse last year at the Spa. Even Zito has replaced him on mounts. 14 wins doesn't promote buisness. Maybe he can pick it back up when they head south, if Jason can get a new golf cart.

After that last race on Desert Sage, who know's. Brown talked him into coming to NY from NJ when Brown came to NY. They both got a 1st Breeders cup together. After that, it looked like it was hard to get him to ride 1st asking. Brown was forced to look elsewhere. Like JV,Ramon,JC, and now Eddie C. I still think he will ride for Brown here and there, they are good buds.

Where Desert Sage finished was hardly Lezcano's fault. But you know that.

It's not where he finished, it's where he started. Choke hold and wrangled back. Guess you know that. You don't spot a field like this 8-9 lenghts and expect to win or hit the board.

Wouldn't it be fair to disclose that " Brown " is your son?
