Like I said before Jock thought he had the race, should he have gone on beating the horse to death?

Wouldnt have been a bad idea considering his past history.

Then that is jockey error not hanging, correct?

Heres the deal Buffy, I will give you the link to watch the race. You count how many times he hits the horse and note that he never stopped whipping all the way to the finish line. If you are wrong, you say yoiu were wrong. If I'm wrong i will not post here to bother you again. You want the link?

WHATEVER DUDE. Honestly, I didn't see what you saw. I have the race on tape at home. To me it just looked like he got caught on the line. Yes, he lost by a nose but not in a head to head fight. The other horse was way wide of him. Didn't see him until it was too late. Believe what you want. You are the king, I am just a lowly servant.

No I'm not the King, but I have to be honest, I wasn't focusing on Perfect Drift during the race. I had used other horses in the pik-4 and was watching them and then once Seek gold started to fly i was jumping up and down screaming at the top of my lungs for him to get up. I know his trainer, and believe me I was a very happy guy when he won.
In any case I hadn't focused on PD and his jock and what happened. I just pulled up the replay on Brisbet because I kept hearing you say that the jock eased him up. So i watched it and was stunned to see that he had whipped him at least 20 times, and was bashing away the whole way home and was whipping furiously until the end. Go home and watch it, I know you can count an add. My point is that you can't make things out to be anything other than what they are in life. Everyone loves the horse, myself included, but to paint it out as jockey error when he hit him 20 times both left and right handed and was whipping furiously the whole way home is a gross misrepresenation of what occurred. go home and watch it again, and holler back at what you saw.

Oracle is the king of something alright...lol


if Pat Day or Gary Stevens were the jockey PD wouldnt have lost

Buffy, I just watched the replay ok? I WATCHED it and counted the number of times he hit perfect Drift in the stretch, he hit him 20 TIMES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now wheer you get the idea that he eased him up is beyond me. And furthermore he whipped him every stride from the time he made the lead to the wire and was whipping him like crazy all teh way to the end.
Now, you are just wrong, wrong to say he eased up on him. I will give you the link to watch the replay or anyone else and you can all count the number of times he hit him, 20. 20 times. If thats eased up then I'd hate to see a furious drive.
he just hung, plain and simple. Like i said, I will give you the link and you can have anyone watch it and if he hit him less than 20 times I will never post here again. I just counted 3 times, its at least 20 times that he hit the horse. He did not ease up on him and I'm wondering if you even saw the race.
