I know this isn't quite on topic, but it's a positive bit of jockey/wife news.

Joel Rosario and his wife Breanna just became parents to their first child, a boy named Liam Ray. Congrats Joel and Breanna!

Won't be quite ready to dive back into those shark infested waters when he's 16. Too soon.

Red face Johnny V picks up...

...the mount on Animal Kingdom.
Does he split the purse monies w/ Robby Albarado?

Inquiring minds want to know.

My selections finished second, third & fourth.
Why didn't I add this horse w/ a jockey change-always an angle I consider.

Why would he have to?
Johnny V was not the reason Albarado was bumped off. The owners made the decision to bump Albarado so IF anyone should give money to Albarado, it should be the partners. However, they are not obligated whatsoever to do so.

You're right about karma. It never fails to come back and hit you in the a$$.

this doesn't deserve its own thread, but have you seen the movie?

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1313092/

would def recommend as it is a good one (mafia mom boss got a best supporting actress Oscar nod).

Lots of irony in this one. Irwin was worried about Robby and replaces him yet Robby rides today, and wins. JV was to ride the favorite for his main man Pletcher only to have him withdraw, freeing up JV for Irwin. JV gets his Derby for a guy (Motion) for whom is not a regular rider.
I guess the question is; would AK have won for Robby?

Yes, I'd think so. He was definitely best today and didn't really require a lot of rider input. JV mentioned several times he would take care of Robby though.
