I'm just very thankful Garret didnt win the last race
His mount Continuity scared me a bit and "a little birdie" said that horse would be very tough to beat.

Did everyone forget Velazquez had a serious injury in late April? Rushed back in early June. Do you honestly expect him to be back to normal by now? I think he's doing outstanding considering the injuries he suffered.

That has ZERo effect. He is 100% healed.

Of course he's going to say that.

Do you actually believe he is the same rider he was before the injury? Please tell me you do because the stats say otherwise. Obviously the guy is not 100% right now. But he will be and i'll flat out say that he'll repeat as top jock at Gulfstream this winter.

He sure looks 100% to me. But he simply doesnt get the mounts on a daily basis to compete for a win title. Now if you want to accuse me of redboarding i can show you the post i made before the meet began in which i stated that Prado was 3-5 to win the title in my mind. Its there, look it up.
If hes riding so badly then explain to me all the bad rides hes given and cite examples. hes not. just because the public bets a Pletcher horse down doesnt give it a shot. His catch mounts are just awful and I dont really think he or Angel care. They are all about the money.

Gomez has really cut into John's business due to the injury. Maybe i'm wrong and he is 100% physically and mentally.

If John didn't suffer the injury the goo goo ga ga over Gomez would probably be about his meet at Del Mar.
