Stauffer's call of the 6th tonight.

[JerseyJ]

I think the other big thing that people fail to see here, is that the horse who "won" the race, wasn't going to win the race, had the 3 not freaked out in the stretch. It was becoming clearer as they neared the finish line that the 3 was going to hold off Rosario's horse and they probably could have gone around again and the 3 would not have been passed. So Stauffer recognized a horse making a move on the turn, but back to the original point of the original poster, he made the horse sould like a 1/5 shot sweeping by everyone like Secretariat.

I think it's a fair issue about having a conflict of interest. Certainly you might be more willing to factor in one role when talking about another. It's a little like NCAA Football Coaches voting in their season ending poll. While not truly the same, USA Today reveals online, the final polls of various NCAA Division I coaches, and the common thing in them is how each coach generally favors and ranks his team higher than they should be ranked showing favoritism to their team, just as Stauffer does at times with Rosario. We get it, of course he's your rider and of course you stand to gain when he wins, but in the matter of professionalism, don't let the two jobs interfere with each other. Keep em separate.
