The HOF didnt seem to matter in the West Virginia Derby, Smith didnt time it right at all. Borel gave him a crappy ride in the Belmont. Time before that Smith again didnt give the horse a chance (Preakness).

What makes you so sure a guy not in the HOF like Chavez or Lezcano couldnt do any better aboard this horse? Give me a break, its not like this horse has been give good rides and just come up short.

I'd like to see what Mike Smith could do day to day riding in NY. My guess is middle of the standings at best.

My guess is below Mike Luzzi, slightly above Morales.

It was a great win for Mike Smith, but was it really all that great of a ride? The horse had tons coming down the stretch and the only horse that wasnt gasping was Einstein.

Well maybe it was, I watched but didnt pay all that much attention. Its really hard to get excited about the polycrap when you have Saratoga & now Belmont going on. I miss the California dirt. It once was really fun.

Yea, that dude could never, ever, in the history of the sport, or in any future paradigm, prove himself in the great state of new york.

While the amount of money Rachel may earn is not important for Jackson's bank account, I think it is important for another reason. He already has the highest money earning male in American racing history and I have a feeling that having the highest earning female is what he's after and that is very important to his ego.

I wouldn't expect him to make a decision too soon on RA, he's probably too busy trying to aquire Careless Jewel right now after her Alabama. And you think I'm joking...
