Tale of Ekati to the Jerome

[KirisClown]

His handling has been embarrassing...

Anyone smart enough to have a kindergarten diploma knew this horse wanted to go "a little bit shorter" for a long time now...

The only embarrassing item here is your post. Another "computer-armchair trainer". How many horses have YOU trained? Ever won the KY Derby? The Wood? The Preakness?

Surely, TAGG knows his stock and thoroughbreds. Maybe THE OWNER of TOE wanted to race at SAR in the 1 1/4 mile TRAVERS. TOE won a G-1 at 1 1-18 miles

Tagg competes on the toughest circuit in the US. The only one clueless here is YOU.

"Also scheduled to appear is Kentucky Derby-winning trainer Barclay Tagg, who will stop by to discuss his 2008 Saratoga meet experiences. Tagg was the renowned trainer of Kentucky Derby winner and local hero Funny Cide, and trains Parting Glass Racing?s Dave, the New York Thoroughbred Breeder?s 2007 Male Turf Champion. Tagg is ranked 9th as a leading trainer at Saratoga this summer, with more than $406,530 in earnings to date."

If you would quit typing through tears for two seconds and actually read, you'd see that KirisClown didn't say anything about TAGG.

I also was not blaming Tagg, but rather all of the connections since I don't know for sure who was pulling the strings.

Obviously, Tagg is a competent trainer. Who could possibly say otherwise in the face of that clipping from a Parting Glass Stable press release lauding Tagg's ninth-place standing at Saratoga. Well done, let's never question his credentials again, because he campaigned Dave.

I love that reasoning.

I guess since I've never been a president of any country, I'm not qualified to say if a president sucks or not.

Or since I've never run an oil company, I guess saying the oil companies are raping all of us would be another unqualified comment.

Banks? Hah!

Perhaps Kiri has something Tagg doesn't. A brain.

By the way, I knew Tagg was an idiot before The Fat Man's post on the other board! The crap that would come out of his big mouth when he was training Showing Up was quite unbelievable.

And don't you dare criticize me about this, since clearly you've never been me!

Is this post a result of eating paint chips?
