He might be top three in the standings but when it comes to the big races he is not the the number three person called, in fact I bet he is not in the top 5.

I think he is decent enough, riders are woefully overrated.

And I bet he makes more money than Pants and fatman combined!!!

This absolutely getting so bad that its embarrassing to read it. Give the guy a break. and yes Rosario won 5 today and yes Vic did say at the end of the race in the 9th: "JOEL ROSARIO TO WIN HIS 5th!!!!!!!"

If it were any other Jock, Vic would say the same thing with the same tone.

I did. After today Joel leads Bejarano by 8 wins in the standings. We know Rafael is going to make a huge run at us. Hoping to hang on for Joel's first So. Cal riding title. Won't be easy. Wish us luck.

All the best.

I remember Victor going nuts over Bejarano during what I believe
was a 6 win day at Hollywood. Man to give Kudos to the competition...
To actually utter your competition has broken a record...

What is he trying to do to this Rosario fellow, ruin his life?
Roasario needs to feed his kids.

Bonne Chance

Joel is a fine young jock and the team is thriving he also seems very camera friendly and likeable. I hope you both have continued success. Most importantly I hope Rosario stays healthy!

He leads the meet with 7 stakes win. Perhaps the other guys lines were busy when they got called before us.

Maybe he just has a really good agent.

Yea, none of the top guys were out of town at all when many stake races are being run during May and June.

What top guys? You make it sound like it's a deep colony. There was Bejerano and then the rest of the field.

The kid is good, did he get to ride the derby, the Preakness, the Belmont, the breeders cup last year...........who the F cares about 10k claimers, my point was he is cleaning up in a meet he should clean up, the main stake riders where trying to win bigger fish this meet. So yea, he is in high demand for the everyday races but he is about 5-6th call for the big events out there.

And it's your extensive experience as an agent and horsemen that brings you to this conclusion?

Hopefully someday Joel will be able to crack the ranks of "main stakes riders" Until then we'll just stay here. Continue to work hard and try to win races.

Let me jump in here for a second and put this **** back in perspective.

Rosario is a FINE young jock. If he's the 3rd best rider out in CALI right now it's because Gomez and Bejarano are excellent.

And Vic, from listening to his calls, has about as good a grasp of setups as anyone not watching replays 10 hours a day for 20 years (I exaggerate as to the latter, but not by much).

Rosario has a better chance of getting really good under Vic than just about anyone else out there. The kid blows some but he's getting better.

My beef about the ride in question goes beyond the trivial. As the comments indicate, most wouldn't take issue with the ride.

thats all you can do, I cant tell if you are disagreeing with my point right now that he is not at the very top of the "money" riders out there.. Its not really a negative comment, its just where he is at.

That's their problem.
