Yeah, and I'm riding Lava Man...I know Frankie's style and I think that if i can box him in on the far turn that i can win the race

Is Frankie available to ride Kennel Up on Thursday? It would be the best horse hes ever ridden.

True, I'd need to ride an old swayback to get low....I'd look like Ichabod Crane on Lava Man

You get on a swayback and your feet will be dragging on the ground then... too funny.

Not if I throw my legs outward like a gymnist...then nobody would be able to pass because I would have the width of a harness racer, or even better, we'd be going so fast that I'd prolly just take off into the air with my legs as a set of wings

Well if Noel is aboard that means they were also upset with the job Albertrani has done and the horse is now trained by Allen Jerkens.

Or the same way he rode him in the Belmont when he was supposedly already an injured horse according to some on here. Of course, Rose knew he wasn't injured.
