I think this decision once again just shows that Monmouth is the place on the east coast where the real racing has taken place this summer.

Yeah, the stakes at Monmouth have been awesome.

They had the best handicap horse run at this meet..oh wait, that was Quality Road at Belmont. They did have Gone Astray.

They had the best turf horse run at this meet...oh wait, that was Gio Ponti at Belmont. At least they had Get Serious.

They had the best 3YO filly run at this meet...oh wait, that was Devil May Care at Belmont.

They've had great claimers and allowance races though!

I hope Jess' prize for running in this meaningless race is a tofu lunch in the Dining Terrace with Snookie and the Situation.

So because Quality Road is only running three races in NY this year after three last year he's not a regular?

Come on, Freddy, you're trying to make it sound like Jess got some great offer from Monmouth and the racing office in NY basically told him, fine, go ahead. Do you really think Campo or anyone else wants to see Rachel ship to Monmouth for some dumb listed stake when they're going to house her for a whole meet? For s.hit sake, is this about 150k? The guy has enough money to feed the entire backside in NY and NJ for the next millennium.

What more does NYRA have to do for the guy? They kissed his ass all year last year when he ran her twice. They renamed a restaurant at the track for his supposed superhorse and created a stake so he can hand out the trophy. I hope, like Parsixfarms said, he's told to take Kensei and the rest of Assman's band of superstars in NY down to Monmouth with Rachel and stay there. Dr. W could probably mop up those 80k N1X races and Hoppsey will be 2/5 in the Oceanport on Haskell day.

P.S. I wouldn't get with Snookie with your thing.

PJ needs ASS more then ASS needs PJ and I would think both know the score..
Nick NYRA could NOT let this happen they needed to go to Jess man to man and tell him we need your horse and we will do whatever you need us to do to keep her here PERIOD.. It's a joke..

Who cares if she isnt the greatest who cares if she is total overrated who cares if you and I could name 7 to 10 at least as good.. She is what the market wants to see and she is what the MECCA is suppose to deliver.. The credit line is in place to protect racing not some 7500 claiming race that will ALWAYS fill.. The point is to be racing the point is to be what is on ESPN.. We all know it's about Jess's ego and not reality and that is not suppose to matter.. The only thing that is suppose to matter is you win

Are you trying to say the racing at Belmont overall this meet has been top notch?

The stakes racing at Belmont and Monmouth aren't even on the same planet. Has the day-to-day racing been top notch? Not even close but it is worth noting that the number of allowance races tomorrow at Belmont outnumbers Monmouth 3-1.

To be fair...how about comparing Saturday's and Sunday's cards.

The Monmouth day-to-day cards have mostly been very good. Undoubtedly a gigantic improvement over their product in years past. That I'd never dispute but the notion that was brought up in this thread that "it's the place to be racing this summer" is silly considering their stakes races are basically the same they were last year and the decade before then.

Nick Belmont is the mecca of the sport. Think about that and tell me there isnt a HUGE problem?

No matter how you slice it, it's a curious decision to run in an ungraded stake for marginally more money when the racetrack which really pumped-up your presence and helped make your Woodward win a big part of why you won Horse of the Year, is offering a grade one race.

It's equally curious as to why anyone would think NYRA did not make an attempt to keep here there.
