The guy's a mutt. He's always misquoting me too. I think he finally gave up.
Got proof on that ??? |
what a bunch of crap.
now we are blaming the jocks for getting smarty jones beat? Im sorry, but I thought it was the job of a jock to WIN the race, and not let another horse win just b/c the little horsey ppl think its a cute story. was Bailey supposed to do everything he could to ensure that SJones won? this is chris bridges. SJones ran a heck of a race. was part of the pace and still held on for 2nd. look, purge goes to the rail with RHT beside him on the first turn. SJones and Elliot elect to go 3 wide around the turn with Edd right beside him. then SJones makes his move entering the back straight. now, RHT and Edd can either let him get away with an easy front running lead down the backstretch or go with him. OF COURSE they go with him. RHT makes him work. SJones puts Edd away first before they even get to the turn. puts RHT away on the far turn and enters the straight with an ever increasong lead over RHT. got tired in the stretch and was run down by The Stone who was moving best at the end. NOTHING UNUSUAL about the race or the riding tactics at all. Im sorry your feel good story did not come to the end so many of you wanted. personally, I wish he would have stayed down when he hit his head on that gate as a 2YO. at least then we would not have to listen to all this b*tching about how unfair it is that the other jocks and horses did not "let" him win the Belmont Stakes and the Triple Crown.

Are you guys this upset that Real Quiet only lost by a tiny nose... or that Silver Charm didn't get it ya know they did take the horse wide so SC wouldn't see him and fight back... Or what about War Emblem, did they make him trip on purpose...
Just saying that it is horse racing. Things happen to make a horse win or lose. Racing Luck. |

Look, rabbits have been used throughtout the game. For instance, Damascus had Hedevar to wear out Dr. Fager in the '67 Woodward. The thing about it is they were both trained (I believe,not owned) by the same person and Hedevar was there only to benefit Damascus. In the case of Bailey and Solis, the perception (right or wrong) is they took on the front end for one reason only...to wear down SJ and take him out of his race. And who did it benefit? What about any bettors that had RHT or Eddington in their exotics? Serious questions on taking horses out of their running styles and why, if there is proof out there that is what they were instructed to do by the owner/trainer...that's one thing...if not that's why the ?? are always going to be ask. |
Great horses find ways to win. Very good ones do not. Smarty, like Ghostzapper and Candy Ride was very good, not great.

Why do you think it has taken this long for another horse to win it? I was just stating that everyone is mad about the Solis and Bailey rides and wants to punish them. Was everyone all up in arms about the 1988 Preakness when they did the same thing to Winning Colors? It is a part of racing. EVERYONE wants it to be their horse to win the triple crown. Should Gary Stevens have held Victory Gallop up to let Real Quiet win? Now I am not saying I agree with what Solis and Bailey did, but just stating that why should we be talking about it still? Smarty was a very good horse. He just didn't win the triple crown. |

I'm purely devastated that Affirmed, Slew, Secretariat, et. al. weren't great just lucky....LOL, The Bid had REALLY bad luck, that darn safety pin. |
Quote:
Affirmed, Slew, Secretariat, etc... were of a different era of horses. They were great ones yes. I meant the horses of today were going to need luck to prove their greatness in the triple crown. People are devious and want their horse to win, not someone elses. That is what it boils down to Dr. Fager. Not nice, but that seems to be the way it is. |
This thread is better than microdot.
And one thing's for sure.....it's a flashback. |

that would be optional, for improved gameplay. although since the "notes" you play along with are color-coded, it may inhibit your ability to become a "true guitar hero..." |
