not really. some races don't seem to ever have a change in finish. gogo would have had to knock someone into the crowd to get taken down.

1000% should have been an inquiry. Both jocks should have claimed foul.

Jocks are frickin retards.

Except for Borel. He just sounds like one, but he clearly has much more grey matter than any other jockey in history.

Probably the dumbest thing I've read on this board. At least racing-related. There absolutely should've at least been an inquiry. CD is a joke.

Know it's coming, but it's just too good.


I loved Papa Clem in this race, and my love lost luster with Bejarano up. He sees the move at SA and HOL ALL THE TIME, and he still goes for it.

Now...Wait, Wait, Wait! Vic we have had this discussion before. This is not a new thing he does. I brought this up with you in here on July 11th, 2008 race 4. This is no worse than that, and you were perfectly fine with leaving that up. This is no worse than what he did on that night. I think what he did that night was more deserving than this. It's the same method though. He sees someone has more horse. He taps lefthanded. The horse shoots sideways, and he keeps it from going as far over as the other guy(and horse) thinks he's going to go. The other horse moves out, and loses a lil momentum, and that allows GOGO to hang on. It's the same deal. This is not something new. This is what he does. I haven't been able to find the head-on of the Derby, but I bet it isn't worse than that night(probably a little less.) This is no dummy. He knows exactly what he's doing. He's like a surgeon with this move. I doubt you're going to see massive contact. It's gunna be more a threatening thing he does(to force lateral movement by the enemy, and a slight momentum loss....it allows him to hold on.)

7/11/08 HWD RACE 4...Successful(NO INQUIRY)
8-13-08 DMR RACE 8...Successful (Jockey claim of foul not allowed)-even if you only have Calracing.com you can see head-on inquiry starting at 5:50...I don't know why they don't think that's enough )
1-10-09 SA RACE 3...(didn't work...horse got up despite his antics)
K DERBY-09......Successful(NO INQUIRY)

Bejarano does it too, but it's not as good. They still let him do it though. From what I remember, he does more of a herding or gradual thing. Gomez has by far the best intimidation move. Works almost each time he does it. They move over, there's usually not that much actual contact (cuz they move over.) He quickly gets his horse moving forward again, and the enemy(who wasn't expecting to have to move laterally) loses that slight momentum advantage they had. I would guess the jocks didn't call it, because they didn't think they would get it changed(and both Bejarano n' Coa like to do it too.) Heard Bejarano after, and he didn't even mention it.
