Borel off Bird for Rachel in Preakness

[gales0678]

does the girl get to ride MTB again Steve ?

Well if Albarado gets the mount on MTB, you can forget about any more rail-skimming rides.

No-brainer fo Borel, IMO. As for the connections of MTB, I wouldnt doubt if they got one of their choice of the best available. Or who knows, maybe Ken Tohill or one of the Sunland regulars comes to ride?

MTB A jock for Pimilco, as long as it's not Mario Pino.

This is awesome stuff! So many storylines for the Preakness, a race that was looking to come up a dud.

I hope Chantal gets the mount on Bird so they can do an epsiode of "Jockeys" at Pimlico.

Are we all in agreement that Borel had a significant impact in Mine that Bird's Derby win? If so, this has to be a VERY big deal.

The question is, if she wins, will Sports Illustrated put her on the cover too

yeah, but the derby is the only triple crown race where a jockey can pull that move. if this horse were to get out last in the preakness and try that last up the rail deal on a fast pimlico track, hes got no shot. and in the belmont it happens like every ten years, if that and the closer usually comes wide off the turn there. calvin does well at CD but like someone said at the other tracks hes just another jock. face it,that horse may never get a better set-up, no matter who rides him. on form, the derby may be a total toss race. we will soon find out.

Shane Laviolette is available

[slotdirt]

JD Acosta? What, no Gerald Almodovar?

Not for nothing, guys, but the way she jogged in the Oaks, I can't imagine she wouldn't be ready to come back for the Preakness.

OMG that would be hilarious... but I'm sure he'll get a top jockey.

This is freaking awesome. I can even put up with ASSMAN as long as it means RA is taking on the boys now.. so cool.

Well we definately know who the favorite will be in the Preakness.
