Clubhouse Ride is the Washington Generals of Horse Racing. Always there to get pasted by Game On Dude.

I see him more as a Tom Brady or Peyton Manning backup. No pressure and still collect a nice check.

Nice Check? Have you looked at his last 7 performances. Not many nice checks there unless you consider a 25K check along with a lot of whiffs good business. I would think they would collect more "Nice Checks" in the Optional Claiming/Claiming/Allowance ranks.

Fred Neal was awesome from half court. Meadowlark Lemon's hook shots off the glass from 35 feet were priceless. Loved watching them paste the Generals.

Im using only Clubhouse Ride and Long River to end the pick 3 and 4. I think they will be offer value in multis as Dude and Moreno will be bet. There is also a cheap ChuckTown speed horse to run with those 2, pace she be super hot.

Agree - I may fish for a price with Joan Scott's entry Ruler of Love as well - race 2 back was good enough here, 2nd off and can sit a trip - just don't know if he's getting 3 turns, but will be well north of the 20-1 morning line and not without a prayer.

KABOOM!!!!!

*side note, must be nice to be Mike Smith, to take 1 mount a day at different tracks as the odds-on chalk and not win.......must be the equivalent of retirement for a jockey

Because no other rider loses with an odds on horse.

Wouldn't throw dirt on Smitty just yet. Second in money won this year, over 13 million last year and averaging about $ 30,000 every time he gets into the gate. Oh, in about a third of the rides of Castellano, Rosario, Bejarano et al.

well, he get's not only grade 1 mounts but grade 1 horses in those races, so it's really no wonder he's making lots of money on them.
speaking of the 1/3 of the mounts as castellano, rosario and bejarano, yeah those guys are daily riders. Rarely do you see them at keeneland for ONE race, or chuck town for one race.
how many mounts did Smith have this weekend? 2?
