but your reason must be the reason why , henning stinks, his horses stink, and that is why after the belmont Jerry decided not to take anymore mounts offered to him!

maybe to clear things up Steve can get the owners of Eddington on the show and ask them what they thought of JD's ride in the belmont?

Or ask why he worked him fast before the Belmont and added blinkers. Obvious isn't it?

that's a fair question and ask him why JD never got another mount from him again as well? did ron and JD turn down mounts from the Hennig barn after the '04 belmont or was it the other way around and none were ever offered again to JD?

In Bailey's book, he addresses the Belmont tactics. I guess everyone has to decide whether he is being disingenuous or not. Nakatani did the same thing to Cigar in the pacific classic with Dramatic Gold, stuff happens...whether we like it or not it's a part of horseracing and there is nothing written in the rules preventing it from happening again.

Does Dominguez have a mount for the Derby right now?

the same horse won the Pilmlico Special from off the pace the following year with Eibar Coa aboard - so yes that is another Grade 1 he might have had for his career , do you think Jerry would not have wanted to win the Pimlico Special the next year , i think it's a Grade 1 isn't it?

Not winning a grade 1 on a horse that you rode in 2 legs of the triple crown the year before is not losing something?

I'm sure he was in great pains over Eddington while riding the Horse of the Year that year.
