Give me a break.

The b*tch about these posts is that sometimes it's hard to tell if there was intended humor.

I didn't watch the Commentator race, but I will note Ginger Punch seemed to be caught in a block and squeeze and block strategy.

But still won. It WAS a fun race to watch.

She was born at the right time.

A nice horse, no doubt, but she was certainly not very good today.

Yep, I understand.

Regardless, a fun race to watch as a racing fan.

But an even more fun race to listen to. Especially from a master announcer like Durkin. Isn't is nice how he always seems to emphasize the genuinely troubled trips. Man knows his ****.

How could she be good.
Had 5 horses working her over, puttin her in a bottle.
3 seconds slower than commentator who never had a horse got close enough to touch him.
Ridiculous to compare races that are so different.
