![]() Can someone tell Joe Drape about this? He will be so sad to find out a non-steroided up, relatively slow, foreign influenced bred horse like AK can actually be injured.
This never would have happened if Lasix were banned.... Last edited by Kasept : 06-17-2011 at 09:55 AM. |

Am I disillusioned. I thought Drape was a respectable "journalist" who liked TB racing SPORT. He did expose the Paragallo debacle, so he gets a star there. But he has turned out to be a misinformed, arrogant jerk. He is an empty suit. He doesn't understand the basics of this sport as it pertains to PROFESSIONAL athletes, who in this case are race horses. What an @ss. He doesn't understand the economics of the sport either. He was pontificating on WFAN to Mike Francesca that "racing should close down in the winter" specifically alluding to NY. What a jerk. Francesca had the NYRA CEO Hayward on after Drape and Hayward blew that drone Drape's bs opinions away. He simply explained in ECONOMIC terms that the horses, trainers, owners at AQU are completely different than the same at Belmont or Sar. Think of AQU as a "different track". These owners.trainers race at the AQ meet. That is when they make money winning races. DUH! |
