Jerry Bailey calls out Stew E.

Did I hear this wrong?:

Jerry Bailey saying we should have had two triple crown winners in the last 10 years if it were not for rides in front of the Nation.

I am almost positive I heard something similar to this. I immediately thought he was calling out Stewart Elliot. But I do not know the other jock he might be referring to. Did anyone else catch this on the telecast. I completely forgot about it, but when he stated this I immediately thought of Smarty Jones and... then I was not sure.

I would imagine the other would be Real Quiet when Kent made the early move. Don't know for sure though....

Did you hear Bailey state my original post on TV?

Nah just taking a guess.

pretty sure it was Real Quiet and KD he was talking about. But not sure he knocked the rider as much as gave examples of riders getting fooled by the track when they haven't ridden over it much (cause they aren't used to the size).

Then Elliot would have to be one of them.

He was speaking in reference to the placement of the horse

yeah elliot definitely screwed up but he let himself be baited into an early speed duel--that Bailey started--and that cost him his race.

So Elliot and Kent D. had their horses poorly placed?
Is this what you get out of that statement?

Not trying to argue. Just remembered. Something to file away in my empty head.

You are correct, he did say that had it not been for 2 bad rides we would have 2 Triple Crown Winners in the last 10 years.

OOps just answered. I was not sure about the numbers but I knew I heard him say something similar. Thanks.

Yeah, Bailey was talking about his own ride on Smarty.

Jerry can be a nice guy when he wants to, but deep down, he's a jealous prick who can't stand to see anyone have glory but him.
