wouldn't bother me one bit. plenty of other jocks out there-who won't resort to taking horribly cheap shots on a horse who did the best they could.

Life time banning wouldn't bother me one bit....taking an eye out of an animal that makes you a very nice living should not be tolerated. Horses don't have a voice...there needs to be a bigger crackdown on things like this

I liked Rose too, but my opinion changed today- HORRENDOUS! Hard to see a legit excuse for that. Roman Chappa got 5 years for the buzzer. Not comparing the two incidents in any way, but a 6 month ban does not seem long enough to me. That is just plain cruel, and it's the last thing horse racing needs right now. WTF was he thinking?

Are you talking about Rose or PG1985?
Rose I could see.....but a lifetime without PG1985?
I'd be pissed.
