BC Mile - George Washington

By the way Gander when you get in a stretch duel with a Euro horse ridden by a Euro jockey, you can go to the window and get on line to beat the rush before they even hit the 1/16th pole. Our jockeys are athletes, their jockeys are riders.
Remember Giants Causeway and Kinane trying to get by Sakhee and Mccarron? Yeah, ok. How about Tiznow and Mccarron vs Sakhee and Dettori? Oh you think you are going by Frankie? I think not.
My very favorite was Pat Eddery and Trempolino storming past Pat Day and Theatrical in 1987. Day simply shook the reins and then went to a hard whip and surged right back past him leaving a stunned Eddery wondering how the hell he lost the race.
Their jockeys have about 10% the athleticism that our jockeys do.
