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.

You are an idiot. What else could anyone else have done with him? And he hung for Day as well you windbag knownothing. remember the Whitney where you said that Roses In may DID NOT BELONG IN AND WOULD BE EMBARRASSED AND THAT RAMSEY WAS DUMB TO RUN HIM IN? Well see as a sidenote to your continued lack of understanding of the game of tbred racing, Perfect Driuft had dead aim under a confident pat day and then hung like a cheap suit from Wal Mart. Its incredible the stuff that you say, incredible.

Oracle, he was just trying to be nice to me. But even Gary doesn't always make the best of rides. Gorella in last years Mile is one that I won't forget. Doesn't mean I don't like him.

You see one thing Oracle and I see another. Leave it at that. Agree to disagree or we could be here all night. AND I AM RIDING AFTER WORK. I got rained out Sat & Sun. Maybe that is why I am so cranky today...

Bufffy I dont see how something factual like the number of times that a horse is whipped can be debatable. I furthermore dont see how anyone could watch the replay and not see the guy whipping away furiously all the way to the wire.
Not trying to get you angry but your mea cupla skills could use some sharpening.
