Fatman says Rosario sucks?


I have a whole new outlook.

Rosario is gonna lead the nation in earnings, wins, Grade I wins in 2009.


Congrats Vic....with an idiot like the fatman now on the bash Rosario bandwagon I am sure he will be one of the best.

That's true. If I was an agent, he'd be a reliable partner. Players have to put up money, and they can't just try again(for free) if a jock makes a poor decision etc. There's a definite difference. If players seem more demanding, it's because more is demanded of them than is demanded from jocks n' agents. That's why players are more upset at questionable rides than jocks, agents, or trainers. If we could go at it again (for free,) then we would probably be a lot less demanding, too....On good horses, the guy is a little less reliable than some. On lazy horses, the guy is the bomb.

His chalk issues remain immense. No doubt, he's saving his best for the 2 bombs coming up (Compari, Ghetto.)

"chalk issues"?

He just can't ride, chalk or otherwise. He has difficulty putting a horse in a drive and controlling it at the same time. Gomez, or any reasonable finisher, wins with that horse.

He's unreliable, but you really think the 5th highest paid jock in the country can't ride at all?

He won't finish fif. It's the off-season for the east coast jocks right now.

Yea, but Vic's doing a particularly good job at getting him live stuff.

Outside of Gomez and Bejaranose there is no depth in the colony. 3-15 are a bunch of busters.

See, can't even come 3rd with the obvious figure horse in the last race. Joel + chalk = unhappy couple

I don't buy it. Southern CAL is just about the only place where stretchouts outfinish cutbacks. You see it all the time where sprinters stretching out outfinish routers cutting back in distance. I thought that the chalk and the 10, both cutting back from 7F, would have a small advantage here --- especially since both were on the pace types. As it turned out, the 10 chased and collapsed and the 9 wasn't any threat, while the winner stretched out from 5.5F.

Who would you want, for example, for the 1st time, in a 200 meter race: a 100 meter runner or a 400 meter runner?

9 was never in it. We agree on that.

at santa anita if a horse takes to the surface, distance is less tiring than most other surfaces. They train on it longer distances too. Its like a mile is nothing for a turfy sprinter stretching out.

I can't buy into your overall theory. I watch too many race and witness too many ****UPS, both by jockeys and trainers, to believe that some of these idiots are actually capable of 'fixing' things. If you can't ride, in other words, you, more often than not, **** up rides, why would I believe that you're adept at 'selectively' ****ing them up?

He's just better on price horses. That's just what I have noticed about that guy. These "situations" he has are usually on logical horses. Other than that, I don't have any problem with him. I've also noticed that he is very quick to shake off a bad day. You should eat, n' you'll feel better.
