Big difference here Da Hoss, at least in my mind. Prado also got beat with Quickfire who was tons the best a week ago at Belmont. But like Happy and Frost, when a jock rides a horse the proper way(meaning running style) I don't scream when they get shut off and checked. I don't blame Gomez for Happy at all. His only chance was to try and get through that hole, he didn't have enough horse to win any other way. He gave everyone who bet on her the best shot he could. You can't control a bunch of 1000 pound animals being in your way.
What you can control are stupid tactical decisions that NOONE IS FORCING YOU TO MAKE!!!
Ok Hoss, if you need to see pp's I can email em to you for that race yesterday, and if you need a race replay you can get it off the NYtb website.
Now you watch that race and look at the pp's and you get on here and look me in the eye and tell me that horror show wasn't anything but his stupid fault to CHOOSE to do the increibly stupid things he did.
Thats the difference. I'm fair. Happy wasn't his fault at all, he gave you the best shot he could. You don't ever hear me screaming about a guy getting blocked and checked. Thats gonna happen a lot, its noones fault. Stupid cognitive moves burn me up. You watch and read and you tell me what exactly you think he was doing out there ok? You need the pp's?
