9 was the best horse. So, I am glad the supporters of the best horse got paid. 10 was the 2nd best horse, but the only way to keep him top 2 would have resulted in the best horse getting 2nd place. As a horizontal player, I care about the best horse getting the win. Anytime you have a chance to give the win to the best horse, you should do it. They did it. Did Espinoza do much wrong? He let his horse drift out to block the best horse. Then ,he saw the best horse come inside, and he started whipping right handed to block him. Almost every single time a rider out here does what he did, the stewards ignore it. So, they're being 100% inconsistent with this call. This call is 100% about who was riding these horses etc. Espinoza can't get a call from them. He is absolutely on their s-h-i-t list. If you go back and take a look you will be astonished at how much it matters to these people(who is riding.) If Gomez(and probably Bejarano) was on this 10 horse, then it is coming down when hell freezes over. This is 100% political. They hate Espinoza, and don't give a s-h-i-t about Mike Machowski. Bejarano is the leading jock. O'neil is probably the trainer with the most starters on the circuit. I'd say that as a horizontal player you need to be aware that Gomez is probably gunna get taken down out here as often as a major quake occurs. It's about the same for Bejarano. These 2 are soooooooooo much better overall riders than the rest out here. Rosario has the potential to match them, but he makes mistakes. His brain takes races off(especially on horses he is expected to do something with.) You are almost never gunna get taken down out here if you use Gomez. You are rarely gunna get taken taken down if you use Bejarano. Now please read this next part carefully:
Let me put this in LIME f'n Green (so you hopefully remember this.) If you use Victor Espinoza or Corey Nakatani out here, then you are at a very high risk of getting taken down, and you have a very low shot of getting put up. A very good list of races will be offered up to show you this is fact(not opinion.) This race is just the 1st piece of evidence.
