Will You Please Ride My Horse? (Again)

if i was chip , i would never even bother with borel again.

if Kent D rides him in the belmont and calvin rides Summer Bird in the belmont - then who wins? Kent D had to eat crow for a long time for his ride on real quiet , he made Calvin look like a 3rd rate jock who had spent too much time on 42nd st all week instead of at Belmont Park
I guess Calvin didn't get the memo that the belmont is 1 1/2, not 1 1/4 - those NY nights last a lot longer than those night in Cajun country, in fact NY nights never end

this I will agree with you on. Not Adam Lambert. Lambert may not have even been able to deal with the pressure of winning a derby or even riding in a derby. Horse would have found trouble and lost.. Calvin was the only guy who would have done what was done IMO... take the horse back like 20 lenghts and make a huge run on the rail.

you do know that was an accident ,chip wanted to be back , but, not that far back , when he banged the two horses coming out of the gate , calvin just decided to take him way back and out of trouble , how do we know casey wouldn't have made a somewhat similar move?

he wan't losing on that peanut butter surface that day

Adam Lambert is still recovering from his loss. I voted for him though.
