he is, definetly in the top three or four. you are right about him being overbet, so i use his horses in exactas alot. (i don't bet triples or supers) some of these horses make good keys in the pic's too. the thing is i don't bitch about a guy thats constantly winning. i actually get steamed at alot of the "blame the jockey talk". these guys are riding for their "bills", with the chance they might get maimed or worse. i think they are trying more than any of us knows. ask the two guys that got in a fist fight during the race last week. you don't come in the top four , you don't eat. yeah, they are not trying. they should take a parlor full of OTB monday morning quarterbacks with their losing tickets and throw them on a horse. most would crap their pants in the starting gate......lol
