I agree with you guys...he isnt right and hasnt been for a while.

Let me ask you guys this. Mott has been going through a cold spell (so has zayat for that matter). Do you think that maybe it could be the other way around? Maybe Kent is getting stuck with a bunch of Mott horses that arent in a position to win right now?

Mott does employ other riders and its not like any of them are lighting things up right now when they are on Mott horses.

Im not saying that this is definitely the case im just wondering if you guys think that it may be a possiblity.

Personally I thought War Monger should have won Saturday, exactly how long did he need to be strangled into deep stretch before he releases and gets the jump on the closers?

"And War Monger is STILL in hand at the 1/4 pole", is how the CLUELESS Durkin described it. If Kent moves when you and the GOUT POSTER BOY expected him to, he doesn't even get 2nd (as he'd have completely collapsed the race).

The timing of his move was perfect; the race dynamics just didn't work out for him.
