im of the opinion she cant control a horse....and coa does use those tactics..and he wins,, im not sore about a loss ..ive just seen her time after time....

I have no idea what this means but as far as the topic of this thread....have you actually watched Chantal Sutherland's rides in NY this year? She is blindingly incompetent.

I never saw her in Canada but I have seen a lot of her in NY. She is dangerously bad. That I know.

Riding at Woodbine and riding in NY isn't exactly the same thing, wouldn't you say? She will never have the same sucess in NY that she had in Canada, that's just a fact.

How can you say that? There are many incompetent riders in NY, she isn't one of them, all of them just try to gang up on her and intimidate her. Witness Coa trying to put her over the rail in yesterday's 7th, all he succeeded in doing though was getting a 2-5 shot beaten instead.

I am no Coa fan, and he does some dangerous things at times, but yesterday was a sad example of her incompetence. She rode that horse scared from the start and was in a position where she needed to be aggressive. Instead she was practically pulling the horse up the entire backstrecth before backing into another horse entering the turn ( OK, the horse she backed into was ridden by another menace, Alan Garcia, who had no business being where he was, but still....). A competent jockey, of which I agree there are dangerously few in NY right now, would have either settled her mount or gotten the hell out of there more safely.

One needs to go no further than her ride on Baby Gray on October 22nd at Belmont to see that she has no business being here. She is simply scared and out of her element.

Her ability,or lack thereof,may explain the mounts she gets and the small win percentage.I think competent trainers in New York realize this.

Coa didnt really look like he wanted to win that 9th race aboard Star Humor.
Log Jam put in a nice rally but didnt exactly blow by like a freight train. Coa stopped riding well before the line. Makes me wonder.
