Default Anybody like anything today?

Have to run some errands now but will check back soon. For reasons out of my control (lol) I didn't do any homework last night.

Icy Ridge in the 4th @ Hollywood. Ran a good race last out and I am play it alone to win. You never know when Solis is going to really ride a race horse or bob up and down like a he's in a boat.

I will never forgive Solis for his ride on Brother Derek in this year's Kentucky Derby.

I don't know, I think he did ok considering he came from the 18 hole. What was so unforgiving about his ride?

There was a hole open for about an eighth of a mile, and he let Lawyer Ron beat Brother Derek through it approaching the far turn. He had a lot more horse than McKee did, and if he would have went ahead and sent BD through that hole, BD would have gotten second. He waited too late to try to go through the opening, got shut out, had to check BD, and had no choice but to go wide.

The unforgiving part happened when Alex and Hendricks choose post #18. The rest is history.

Alex is at the later part of a wonderful career that has had him at the top for along time. He doesn't ride like a race rider since his last fall where he hurt his back. If he is on the inside he will start last and try to close. Always 3 & 4 wide. Its hard to bet him even though you know he has the best horse. Nice guy, but he's in the twlight of his riding days.
