I agree that iin 3-5 years he may be one of the best, but until then we need to stop giving him so much praise.

You sure we are watching the same kid Irish?

We are talking about Julien Leparoux?

When I said he gets the donkeys home too.... it was in response to Mistergee.

If you dont think that kid can ride you havent watched many races. Mena couldnt wash that kids shorts, not even in the same league. Infact there may be 2 or 3 riders in California full time who could even be mentioned in the same breath, and one of them rides 3 months a year (P Val), the other is an arrogent buffoon (Nakatani), one is incredible (Gomez)

"I don't know Lloyd the french are a$$holes"


i think he's a talented young rider. But, im really interested to see if fellow frenchmen Bianconne still gives him first call on his horses after he loses the bug

Guys, when he won all those stakes as a bug he carries the weight. This kid is no unpolished, average rider.

How can you bash Nakatani, I think he is one of the best in the game no doubt. I always get my moneys worth when I bet him.

I don't know about NDhomer, but I don't like him because he's french.
