Of course, I'm referring to how a horse ran in terms of the setup of the race NOT how many times it steadied going around the track.

Mr Eloquence is also on record as insisting that horses don't like to run inside. Yet another track/handicapping truism that's just wrong yet continues to be thrown around by even those who really should know better.

This really isn't the proper way to 'educate' those new to the game.
Serling is doing an amazing job..Since his involvement at NYRA the product is immensly better and peopleare given an opportunity to learn and be privy to his experience and love for the sport.

The Fat Man is an embittered fool that speaks jibberish that bears no semblence of truth. It's actually comical.

This from someone who was just recently whining about getting beat at 12:1 by an inside trip from Dominguez (the ride of the year, in fact) while his horse was getting the Johnny V trip.

The IRONY was lost on him.

I'm embittered. I really want to be a BEYERITE.

How's that self-hatred thing working for you?

Get a grip, will you. You're hanging with too many of those Manhattan bitches.

How exactly did I offend you with my comments? Aren't you on record, repeatedly, that horses don't like to run on the inside? How many draft and ease out in the stretch trips do you need to see from Dominguez before you come over to my side of things?

Only someone with a twisted agenda would think any of this from what I repeatedly say.
