Default Tale Of Akati Prado almost cost CJ race

I say CJ would have won by 5 lenghts if not knock off stride and sideways by
Prado and piece of crap TOK. Crush the win but missed my exacta. Hope you
all won .

Tale of Ekati is no piece of crap, he's just been made to look like one because of horrible mismanagement.

With the move he made in the Jim Dandy moving into the teeth of that fast pace I was hoping Tagg would cut him back to the 7f for the King's Bishop where I think he would have fit pretty well with that group.

I saw that they brushed which caused CJ to come out and almost end Macho Again's life right there but you really think he would have won by 5 if that had not happened? Consider the Colonel lucky to get this one cause he had a much easier trip regardless of that little bit of trouble than Mambo had.

He shouldve been cut back to one turn after the Derby. I said it after the race, how Tagg watched that horse finish in the Derby and thought "more distance", I can't fathom. Hopefully he's not too screwed up to still be a good one-turn horse.

CJ"S left hind end swung right showing he was hit from the rear side, i like CJ
because he's had only 1 race on dirt, the KY Derby, have to throw that out.
He just might end of the big horse for the JGC and fall races, maybe even BC.
Remenber i said this.

how can mambo be the only good horse to come out of this race? col john, until today, did his only good running on poly-and he also had a rough race today, and still managed to win it, even if the margin was small, he still won the thing.

I'll say there's no reason for you to call Tale Of Ekati a name like that. Look at what he has accomplish after an ill-suited 3yo campaign. look at his graded stakes wins purse money, etc.. Do you know him personally? If not they statment is out of line.

Ridiculous.
