Not saying it is good. Just a comparison to NY. I think they both have their plusses and minuses

First of all, the thread was about Gulfstream, but for some reason you needed to make it about NYRA. Second of all, you made a poor argument, as the racing has been far better overall in NY, even now.

I didn't make it about NYRA, just made a comparison of both and what each has to offer. You are the one who made it about NYRA and took it personally. All I was trying to point out was how compared to NY, Gulfstream has some other things to offer that NY does not at this time of year. I never mentioned that one was better than the other, so Lighten up Francis. It's just a thread on a forum.

Rule in internet posting....when someone says "lighten up Francis" they have lost.

I didn't take anything personally. I was just pointing out how wrong you were and why. Thanks for understanding that and admitting it.

Sure they do. I’m just not sure what NY has to do with anything. This is “the championship meet.” It’s basically 4 sh.it cards a week a 1 good card.

8th race today Mimina’s Team is 11-1 going into the gate. 5-1 coming out of the gate and 7/2 a quarter mile into the race. The scumbag riding her looked around under both shoulders as she glided up to the lead turning for home and then decided to start riding as she was swallowed up midstretch.

Who knows what the hell is really going on in these pools or on the track but that race was pretty fishy.

I want to not despise jockeys and then I see Tyler Gaffalione’s overconfident ride on The Extravagant Kid in the 9th today and I realize they are useless. You can’t sit like a statue until the 1/8 pole and get beat...period.

Watching riders defer to Leparoux on the front end is incredible. I’ve seen it all now.
