I think Centeno just wanted to spread his questionable rides on obvious singles to other trainers.

His win % is still pretty high because he gets alot of good horses, but he is not riding ANYWHERE near like he has in the past. He has really given some very questionable and sh*tty rides so far this meet. Used to be able to single him on some horses with a great amount of confidence, but I flat refuse to single him now.

I may be in the minority here, but I also think his turf riding is overrated. There are a few jocks there, that IMO, are have a better sense of timing on the grass. Velez rode circles around his ass last year on the turf. ( I would love to know what has happened to him, as I made a couple nice scores on him last year). I also think Rosemary is a better rider on the grass.
