Stealing money is not ok Chuck, no matter how hard you try to obfuscate the matter.

Saying it's okay because it happens all the time is the response of a spineless pusssy.

A lot more horses win going wide in the first turn than rabbits.
You dont have to be an insider to know that.

No ones money was stolen, it went into the pockets of the sharper players.

Your last sentence doesn't deserve a response.

Yeah, the spineless part was totally uncalled for.

Chuck is right even though he blatantly disregards the multi-quote option just so he can BE RIGHT.

We get it. You're never wrong on anything. Ever. Omnipotent Chuck.

It must mean Todd Pletcher is a god above gods.

FFS I hate this sport. WTF am I doing reading this ****ing garbage?

I singled Cay to Pomeroy in the 3rd race at Belmont today because he looked for all the world like lone speed. Instead, Jose Ortiz unexpectedly hard sent Starship Captain after him, which was clearly a suicide mission. Cay to Pomeroy won the battle but lost the war, getting passed by two closers late and killing my multis. Starship Captain finished a very distant 4th. I DEMAND AN INVESTIGATION!!!

Really Joey? Disappointed that you belittle our argument.. Because it has nothing whatsoever to do with the situation you just presented.

I think your argument would have validity if you weren't clinging on to the Shared Belief race as an example. That wasn't stiffing a horse, it was race-riding the overwhelming favorite with a hopeless longshot. Sky Kingdom was never winning that race or even competing in any scenario, so I don't understand how him making things a little tougher on the big chalk is such an outrage.

Well you are absolutely wrong and many of us feel the same way but that is ok. Pretty funny you cite hopeless longshot in the same post where your single was beaten by a hopeless longshot.

Possibly because it was designed as a prep for the BC... not an all out, life or death struggle to the end?
You can't think for a moment that Hollendorfer really gave two sh1ts about the race - he was livid that the effort took too much from the horse.

Baffert whines like a baby when GoD doesn't get a clear lead and then pulls this bush-league horsesh1t.... Art Sherman owes him a steak dinner.

I get it, Chuck.

Devil's Advocate is an excellent way to kill time and as what the cool kids say these day..."s h i tpost"

But either way that race wasn't a good look for the sport. Especially considering Espinoza accused Smith of threatening to cut his head off.

We don't need drone strikes on track. Not that I particularly care because I never go these days...but it would suck for other people.
