Did he get sucker punched? I saw him put his finger in Castellano's face and then I couldn't tell what happened. Borel was certainly right to be mad. But a finger in the face usually means it's go time.

You're right! Looking at it again he really didn't sucker punch him. Crazy! Have you ever seen anything like it?

Am I the only one who thinks ESPN's coverage of the actual races is unwatchable? Enough with the camera changes, how bout letting us watch the race. Back to Twinspires on the computer.

Yep...I'm watching it on the breederscup.com feed because I can't stand the camera views on ESPN.

Better luck as well. I switched over to Twinspires, and caught my 1st winner.

how would you feel if you had all 3 horses in the trifecta but only bet the exacta and keyed the favorite on top to have it run 2nd

I know

happens ALL the time

I bet the exacta I get the tri
I bet the tri I get the exacta

so happy when tomorrow will be over

You haven't been watching ESPN?

Well let me tell you what you've missed.....

"Zenyatta, Zenyatta, Zenyatta, Zenyatta, Zenyatta....jockey fight!"
"Zenyatta, Zenyatta, Zenyatta, Zenyatta, Zenyatta....Calvin still looks angry!"
"Zenyatta, Zenyatta, Zenyatta, Zenyatta, Zenyatta....can Calvin concentrate?"

Totally agree. Borel really shocked the shoes off me - Jekyll and Hyde. Scary!

Agree that Castellano should get a suspension. I'm sure his move wasn't intentional - aggressive riding gone wrong, and he has to pay the consequences.

Borel should get some kind of reprimand for going so... postal.
