I wonder, is it just on the internet you make irresponsible statements like this? " It obviously was not well taken care of "? So, your an expert on track maintenance as well. Good to know.

I am an expert on knowing they didn't take care of the turf at belmont, and blamed a lack of money for the reason, and I am an expert on knowing that rain shouldn't cause a problem with a track for days.

They will not get back to the main track by next weeks races. When Discreet Cat and Nobiz don't show up, you will look like a fool. I know you or Oracle or one of you guys used to work for NYRA. Stop defending them. In my opinion horses are dying because they are too cheap to take care of their tracks.

Announced this morning that Discreet Cat is still a go, inner or outer track, they don't care.

Do you have a link for that story? I heard they won't run him if they don't like the track. I know Barclay Tagg has already said he won't run his 2yr old if he doesn't like the track.

You actually said Nobizlikeshowbiz isn't running. This " he may not run " garbage means nothing. Every horse entered may not run.

What trainer does run a horse, especially an extremely valuable horse, on a track " he doesn't like "? Certainly not one as exceptional as the great Barclay Tagg.

The Remsen is a nice race but hardly so prestigious that you'd skip a million dollar race where you would be the likely favorite for it and its $200,000 purse.

They don't care about money with this horse. This is a very wealthy owner that wants to get to KY in May. Tagg wants to stay in NY. His assistant is heading out to CA that weekend and I doubt he wants to go to Delta Downs.

Once again, just making things up. I never said Nobiz isn't running. I am not his owner or trainer. How could I possibly know. I am not stupid enough to say such nonsense.

Here are the facts. Rain, just rain, caused Aqueduct to take off days from it's main track. Explain that.

I'm then confused by this post...but then again I am a " gambler "...so what do I know. One thing I do know, unlike you I do have established credibility in this game as well as accountability for what I say.

You are a self-professed expert on many things...most of which have proven to be inaccurate over time. You are also part of a group of posters that have only come to this site to cause trouble and further a variety of personal agendas.

The simple fact is you run your mouth, so to speak, on the internet and have established zero credibility.

You are a gambler. Gamblers have zero credibility. I love you guys when you are wrong you start coming up with personal things.

I have quite a few dollars invested in the business. Finally the horseman are starting to win out over the gamblers. Once NYRA is gone everyone will be happy, but most importantly the horses.
