Hopefully he really was just sick...Hard to ever believe him though.

I had a post in here somewhere that was an exchange with Kev that predicted this would happen sooner than later but can't find it now. Another new and interesting way to Red Board this time on a jockey's recovery ....will wonders never cease...

You have absolutely no idea what you're talking about.

No it's not.....You should know by now that I would never take a heartless shot at a suffering addict. I have all the empathy in the world for those suffering who can't or won't get help. The disease is merciless, killing daily and afflicting millions......everybody has a story about a family member or friend who has has ruined their life or the relationships in a family because of the disease.

Sorry...

Don't worry no offense taken......Mothers who contribute to the board regularly also get a pass from any criticism. It's called the Byk Bill of Maternal Rights. Coauthored by Senator Danzig I believe.

Actually he didn't..... it was Cisco Torres, PVAl is still off all mounts and not listed for Thurs or Friday. I hope he really is sick...everyones sick down here...but I tend to doubt it as no mounts on the 4th or 5th.

Anyway your boy RR looked good in the paddock, I think I got a couple of pics but they really didn't walk him around much. Someone needs to whisper to him that it is a lonnngggggg stretch at the FG.....he really looked like he stopped at the 16th pole and there was more to go. Best of luck to him next time out....

It is sad that whenever he seems to start doing well, he sabotages himself....and it has ALWAYS started with him "calling in sick", "or ovesleeping due to cold medication", and it is usually after beginning to succeed and have a number of live mounts. He really can ride when he is clean.

I just wonder if someday we will be readling about a tragic overdose from one of racing's real wasted talents....I hope we can remember his great rides on Sunday Silence and his duels with Pat Day and Easy Goer, but I'm afraid Pat is choosing a different legacy for himself.

Well he was/is sick. Racing today, took off his first mount but then ran in the 5th DH for place/show in the 8th.... riding in the 9th and 10th. Still don't see him listed for Thurs or Friday, but this respiratory flu thing going around down here is awful, maybe he just took off those days. Glad to see that the speculation wasn't right and he really does have the flu like everyone else, not that the speculation isn't warranted, but he lives on to fight yet another day.

3rd in the 9th

i dis agree..he knows the deal and still chooses to partake.. he could have the world by the balls but would rather suck that glass %ick.. with his talent and his money he could go to any high end recovery yet he does not..sick is one thing..stupid is another.
