I knew Israel was a goner as soon as he appeared on the scene; figured that Ace's man (Farina) would be offing him, though. They're gonna make fish food out of Israel, I think.

The Escalante character (Ortiz) is far and away the guts of this show; what a job that guy does. There are about a dozen or more Hispanic horsemen that I know in the Ocala area that are LESS believable than him in that part!
He's got the language down exactly right; looks like he's gonna turn out to be an "all right" guy after all, after being portrayed as a greedy slimeball in the first episode.
