Tale Of Akati Prado almost cost CJ race

[cakes44]

I'm kind of surprised Tale of Ekati hasn't tried the turf yet. Tagg always seems to lean that way with his horses anyway, and there is so much $$ to be had for 3 yr olds on the turf. I know he doesn't have that explosive turn of foot, but neither did Nobiz Like Shobiz, and Tagg turned him into a decent one. I'll take TOE's turf pedigree over NLS as well.

I know many of you use Poly as a catchall to describe any AW surface, but they are not the same stuff and shouldn't be treated as such in discussion or in handicapping. Not even all the Poly tracks play the same way (AP vs Kee).

Let's see now, CJ had big trouble like Mambo, knock side ways jockey pull up
for a second, came back Mambo had his chance to get by CJ, he could'nt and finish second, however Mambo is only serious horse? He lost to CJ so he is only second serious horse. lol

Has PG ever been quoted by a PG wannabe before this?

I'll say there's no reason for you to call Tale Of Ekati a name like that. Look at what he has accomplish after an ill-suited 3yo campaign. look at his graded stakes wins purse money, etc.. Do you know him personally? If not they statment is out of line.

Ridiculous.
