They need to bring Darren Beadman's ass over from Australia and let him guide the emmefffer home.
Good guess.

Hey, I like Beadman!

Thanks, another I think that is pretty good is Brett Prebble, however Darren and Douglas are in a select league.

Absolutely.

I just tend to over-talk him on the HK threads so figured i should show a bit of restraint here.

I would say to whoever is riding, "Get as good of a trip in the Belmont as you did in the Peter Pan."

The ride on Vodka the other day wasn't much. I'd go with Dutrow's "main man." If he got Bird Droppings to look good, then why go anywhere else? Yea, I'd love to see Prado take this from Dutrow. All this time, he has been his main jock. Now, when he had a T.C. candidate he gives it to the mouthy Cajun. Don't forget he already cost Prado a B.C. Classic Winner (I'm sure he didn't fight the owners that hard on that one, either.) Whatever Prado is on in this race. Play it...Play it..Play it.

I'm not overly critical but I've been disappointed with him (on Vodka) in the past.....

I saw that race Saturady night and I really think Vodka had no excuse, hard to blame Take IMO. She was in position, the horse just couldn't pick them up. Perhaps she is not at her best at the moment...The race in Dubai was probably farther than she wanted to go if my memory serves me correct from looking at the past p's Sat - Sun morning. Sorry I have to disagree...

He should of been on him in the Florida Derby. He had won one from that far out before. I want to see him show Dutrow who should of had this mount. You're right. What's done is done, but don't be surprised when you see Edgar come suck them up late. Dutrow has the loyalty of a cheeto-eatin' pothead.

I still haven't bothered to watch the replay.

Wasn't in the mood Sunday after the Singapore thing but there have been a couple of times when I wasn't thrilled.

Take may be all that, but he's no Brett.

Will check the replay later...

Not saying he cost her the race, but it wasn't as good of a ride as you'd like to get. Lets face it, she is a little lazy, and you aren't gunna win with anything but a really good ride on her. I figured she'd run second. We all know this type of horse. Whenever I hear them bring up her name (VODKA,) I know there is a false favorite that night. What's that 4 tops song? Just call out VODKA's name ,and "I'LLLLLLL BE THEEEEEEEERE."

I think she has perhaps already peaked, let's face it her reputation precedes her now and as you rightfully have pointed out perhaps she was a false favorite Sunday morning. Hey we all have opinions and mine is not necessarily better than anyone's other. I thought if she was good enough she would have outfinished the other horses despite being a little farther back than ideally. That's what good horses are supposed to do.
