[quote=asudevil;1038367]It's time for Mr. Prado to hang up his tack. The performance today on Run of the River in the Spa 8th was absolutely deplorable. Yes, I bet the horse. Yes, he was a key in my multi-race plays. He did everything possible to not give the best horse in the race any opportunity to win. I won't describe each call, watch the replay and shake your head. My frustration was validated by the bevy of tweets from well respected handicappers. A friend mentioned that Shug may have wanted to give Edgar an easy W at the Spa. Probably true.
Saw the replay....elected to stay on the rail, always risky...steadied when the #1 horse cut in front of him, he is screwed at that point in the race.
but I've seen worse from other "great" jocks. all part of the game.
