Alex Solis just handed you that race on a silver platter.

yeah, what a great ride by Solis, no reason that 9 shouldn't have blown that field away.

I agree. The 9 should have won that race. Not sure if he was too far back or what. But that is racing. On to the late daily double for me.

Tried watching the replay of the 6th, but something is up with wmp on IE and Firefox and i'm far too drunk to figure it out...HOWEVER!!!

That ride by Alex Solis was just horrible and I doubt my opinion will change after I watch the replay. ...anyone else think it's time for Solis to retire? I believe Headley and Gallagher's win pct would have a good spike if they took him off their horses. Since he's returned it seems that he wants no part of being on or near the lead and he definitely doesn't want to send his horse inside.

Alex Solis had a great career. It's time for him to return to the TVG booth full time and drop knowledge like fellow former jockey and Hall of Famer Gary Stevens. I, for one, can't wait to watch and hit the mute button.

:O

Solis' ride was horrible, one of his worst in recent memory. Interesting, if you go over to the del mar board www.dmtc.com you see some interesting info. IT says that Solis stays with foot in the door by having partial ownership in horses and even partnerships with trainers like Headley.

Either way, Solis avoids the rail at all costs and going 10 wide is costing trainers, owners, and players.
