It was a very nice work. Though not as fast on my watch. Clocker is wacked half the time imo....Anyway Ramon said he's much stronger this year, and felt better. We'll look for a race in Feb for him.

I heard you were not at Aqueduct to see the work , you were at Belmont so how did you clock it. The work was timed by both NYRA clockers and DRF clockers and they both got the same time, so why would you say the NYRA clockers were wrong if you did'nt even clock the work, that does'nt seem fair at it also makes it sound like the clockers are hiding things or just incompetent, so why would you make these statements.

I only have 8 horses at Belmont. Its quite easy to get to Aqueduct by 8:45. I watched Pink Viper and Golden Dreamer work yesterday and got the same time more or less than the clocker. I dont like watching the works from the Backstretch boxes when ive got 3 asst.s watching plus the boss watching there. You get a whole different prospective watching the final part of the breeze right in front of you..

Nice calm answer to an out-of-line post from a newbie. I admire people like you who can remain calm when provoked.
