Questions to better understand your thoughts and "position" in the food chain AFTER horse has been purchased.
Last race,Court was told previous to race to stay away from rail and certain comments were later made by you that sounded like a jock change would be a positive.
This race he goes 3 and 4 wide.Now many jocks would have done the same,and some would have tucked him in behind #5, Magnum, well before the first turn.
Gomez stole 2nd money by plying his trade and using his brain simultaneously.
I've never seen a horse so lathered out like the 8 was before the race.For this animal to obtain place money is an indication of how weak this field was.
One look at the form and a 10 year old would observe that sitting behind the gray would have bought you at the very least 200k.
What was the jock thinking?The trainer?The connections? OUCH!
And for anyone else responding ,this IDEA of tucking him in and whether he had room, isn't an afterthought--the race was LOST at that point and easy detected while sitting on my rear saying'HERE WE GO AGAIN!"
