The bigger issue is allowing these pinheads to waver and herd all over the track. As long as there is no physical contact, it is deemed okay. The Stews seem to give the Tampa jocks even more leeway on the turf. They know the jocks have a hell of a time keeping them straight when they hit the gap at the chute and give them the benefit of the doubt every time.

I like Ten Sweet Kisses coming out of that race. A first time starter with loading issues, a slight check in the turn, split horses in the stretch with interest, it was a good education. Unfortunately, the price will not be right with that trainer.

Did they ever give Coa days for nearly killing Deano?

If they have, he hasn't served any. It happened on the 29th, they may not have ruled yet. The TBD website is woefully behind posting rulings.

I'll check with my source, but I don't think it is a matter of will they, it is a matter of how many.

Sorry for the delay, but to set the record straight, it's NOT Luis Garcia, it's Ricardo Feliciano!

Finally did it today. Caught a tiring Ma'am-sam (or is it Mama-son? ;-)) at the wire.
