If he had pulled that sh1t in Europe he'd have been out of work for 6 months.

I didn't have a dime on the race but we all know It's difficult enough to be successful as a bettor when they follow the rules.... to watch a multirace ticket get blown up by a 86.00 horse that should not have been within 3 lengths of him because of the jockey....I get exactly where Joey's coming from - I would not bet a cent there either.
Of all things to take a stand on, this is the one to do it on? If he had been suspended, would you feel better? This race was more of a case where he didnt see the horse on the inside and was riding under wraps. Its not like he stood up or pulled his horse up 10 yards before the wire. I would say it was a great ride by Brice Blanc but all you see is a poor ride by Kent. Thats mob mentality for you.
