Girolamo

[NTamm1215]

He's one of a frustratingly long list of mis-managed horses by Godolphin.

This was a banner year for their ineptitude. I can't quite figure out what's the problem because Rick Mettee is an awfully sharp guy.

Between Sara Louise being rushed into a 9 week campaign to Girolamo debuting in a GI to Vineyard Haven totally falling off form to Regal Ransom having a campaign headlined by winning a N3X at Saratoga, it was just sickening. Thank God Hibaayeb won a disgracefully bad Yellow Ribbon and Girolamo won the worst Vosburgh in its history.

They are so bad, and so inept, I really think that someone that is a rank amateur or novice/beginner in horse racing would make better decisions.

Which makes me wonder if they are sabotaging themselves on purpose.

I know that sounds implausible, but the way they run things, nothing else really makes any sense.

I dont think Mettee has much influence on where they run horses. As a matter of fact I dont think anyone in that organization says no to SM very often.

Respectfully you kinda left out Campanologist being 16th in the Melbourne Cup and Delegator 8th in the BC Mile.

Look at this...

These are seriously good horses.

Or were...

I don't know what to think anymore.

I'm not defending anyone anymore.

Fin.
