I didnt know Juiceguy was an gallopboy, maybe he has some valid points if he also rides. He may have been able to prevent that breakdown by taking ahold and easing that horse outside. Maybe someone with his experience would have been able to scratch at the gate without it costing him business. I wouldnt be in a hurry to gate scratch a Melnyk horse in Florida as a bug. Hes probably right, it was that pinheads fault, he shouldnt have ridden that mount to the fullest, and I am an idiot. I apologize for having an opinion different than his, I thought I could give my opinion in here without getting attacked.

I gave my opinion, and I was attacked, you were the one that said the kid deserved to die, not I. By the way, I am not a gallop boy. You keep obsessing over "gate scratching" a horse, why can't you accept the idea that it's obvious something went wrong DURING the race, not necessarily BEFORE it. This is where horse sense and judgement apply. Do you really think the connections, or anyone else except dumb gamblers like oracle would penalize the kid for excercising proper judgement and pulling up an injured horse? If you do, then you have no horse sense either. I'm sure the owners were happy watching the kid beat a injured horse senseless until it finally went down and was irreperably injured. |

Juice, you know that filly showed some talent in her first start. She took all the money...they ran her back in the same spot next out, she finished up the track, took all the money at the 25 level. Then they chopped her in half, bottomed her out, and she broke down. To me I think they probably had an idea she had some issues. She showed enough talent in her first start to try her a few times before doing the chopsuey, unless she had some issues physically.
I never attacked you, I just think its pretty rotten to blame a bug for a chalk breaking down on the lead midstretch. He really doesnt have many options, riding for Mr Melynk in Florida. You ride the mount to the finish, period. Im glad little bridge is alright

I'm just stating my opinion. I'm not offended by it being unpopular, but it is reality. Do you think Jerry Bailey would have beat a hurting horse senseless until it broke down? This kid learned a valuable lesson, and made a mistake I'm sure he won't ever make again. What's so great about riding for "Mr. Melnyk" ?

Whats great, he has a steady stream of horses
Bailey wouldnt have been on a 12,500 maiden claimer in the last race of the day. Bailey would have gate scratched, but Little Bridge is no Bailey, and little Bridge could lose a lot of business if he starts gate scratching mounts for major outfits. You dont agree?

Quotes from Tony Black
"It's nice that you can figure out why the horse broke down AFTER the race... could you let me know before the race"? "no one can predict what will happen in a race unless they have a crystal ball and to this point no one has handed me one" "don't blame the jock... blame it on the system that let the horse run in the first place" "everyone needs someone to blame... the easiest one is the jock" "I've ridden 20,000 horses and I've still have had one break his leg... so much for experience"! "it's a split second decision, I can't say I would have done anything different" |

Why do you get some Jesse Jackson quotes too? Better yet, why don't you actually WATCH the race? I know, because that would negate your already shallow argument completely. |

You told me to talk to someone who knew more than me!!
Don't even put Tony Black and Jesse Jackson in the same breath!! I did watch the race.... guess you have those special glasses! Last edited by Samm : 12-13-2006 at 07:55 PM. |

Ask Tony Black for the five dimes he cost me at Saratoga in the summer of 2005 when he was 100% responsible for getting beaten a pimple by a Karakorum horse that I now have to see beat me again and again and again and again...and then some....in their ad. |
