"Lukas, Sellers Spar Over Jockey Weights"

The above is the headline from a story on the Bloodhorse site:

``Anything Shane Sellers says, I wouldn't take too seriously,'' said Lukas

``He showed he never had any compassion for riders and he never will,'' said Sellers

``There's no common sense in that logic at all,'' said Lukas

Sellers``It's time to stop listening to guys like Wayne Lukas.''

My question is why is Sellers engaging in these wars before the biggest ride off his life. His horse has a big chance and yet between this Documentary, the spitting matches, and lawsuits over the rights to wear advertisements you really have to wonder where his head is right now.

Believe me regardless of what you interpret from the comments, Lukas has gotten into his head, perhaps thrown him off his game. The qestion becomes one of whether or not he (Sellers) is going to be answering these questions constantly over the next few days and then again if he isn't then why isn't he.

He and the other Jockeys brought this up, the advertising litigation, the PVAL no vote and are forcing the issues at a time when they should be thinking about trying to win the biggest race of their lives.
