Title: Yonkers today...11 races in 5 plus hours
Post by: The Unstable on September 07, 2024, 10:22:12 AM
If you are going to Yonkers today, you would have to be insane.  Why would it take 5 plus hours to race 11 races???  Mr Faraldo since you run this Jewel of racing please answer. Terrible.

Because this is their big day.  Every race worth 225,0000 or more.  All the owners are there and it's not going to be 30 second winner photos with no one around.  Every ceremony will take an extra five minutes and the International even more.

And the other 25 minutes between races????

Question of the day—-

Will the Europeans bet more than the North Americans on this card??

i feel after todays race....

Jiggy Jog is better than both Atlanta and Hannelore in my opinion

Ake doesnt race her much...has a carefully managed schedule

too bad Joviality S wont come over

JJ should try for a few top European events if she is this good at this age

having them all race with the same color saddle cloths is ilogical--i never understood that

No commingled pools with Europe = fail


Same-color saddlecloths = MASSIVE FAIL

Someone give me ONE benefit to having all the horses yellow saddlecloths? Name one...it's impossible.

Same saddle colors is stupid.. always has been. Jiggy Jog is unstoppable right now.. I would keep racing her rather then breeding to her yet.. She has the opportunity to reach rarefied air.

Who is the idiot announcer who said they went 1609 meters in 1.12

1609 Meters is 1 MILE dumbass

If they went 1.12 for the mile they would beat thoroughbreds by the length of the staight

Four foreign horses break and the race is a huge bore for $1 million! This was a GIFT qualifier basically for Ake for $1 million!

M1 tonight with several amatuer races will be more exciting and their handle will be higher as well. Yonkers is a cesspool.

get 12-14 horses
 race it at the big m or lexington
race at 1 1/2 miles
make sure europe can wager on it

now you might have something worthwhile

convert Colonial back to a harness surface where the had a one turn mile and make them go two laps--like a 1.75 mile race

pay to fly the top Euros over

have the purse $2 million or more

Desperate Man wins his 10th in 14 starts this year. I remember John Cecchin saying while being interviewed after winning the NA Cup that this is going to be their Saturday night horse. 3 years later, it looks like it worked out.

first quarter in 29.3 😂😂😂😂

That’s how you race for  a million. Seen more competitiveness in qualifiers.

BEST PART OF DAY IS THE MANAGER DIRECTING WINNERS CIRCLE PHOTOS AND REALLY MAKING SURE THAT PEOPLE RESPECT KAKALAY.   

ANYONE READING THIS OWES THE MANAGER A FEW DOLLARS FOR DID DEDICATION.   PLEASE TIP.

Why was Jen bongiorno the first person to greet Jiggy Jog at the winners circle? She own part of that horse? She "trained" the horse this week?

if she had nothing to do with it and was just trying to slide in and i owned any of the horse i would tell her to get the f out

UPDATE
MANAGER WAS THANKED BY EVERY OWNER FOR HIS WORK DIRECTING,,,
THE MANAGER SHOULD BE PAID BY JONKERS TO LINE UP EVERY WINNERS CIRCLE PHOTO SO THAT THE BEST ANGLES OF HORSE, DRIVER, AND OWNERSHIP INTERESTS ARE FEATURED.   

 THE MANAGER IS THE BEST THING TO EVER HIT JONKERS,,,

If she has nothing to do with Jiggy Jog, it is absolutely ridiculous for her to be out there first person to greet the horse after winning a million dollar race.

Actually, she was heading to the horse to help. Dexter stupidly dropped the lines to help the guy with the cooler and Jiggy Jog stepped on them. Jen was running over to grab the lines before a catastrophe happened but Dexter grabbed the lines when the mare stepped forward. What Dexter did was completely amateurish. If that mare got spooked, there is no way that attendant is holding her from running away. YOU NEVER LET GO OF LINES ON A RACETRACK, ESPECIALLY IF CART OR BIKE IS STILL HITCHED.

That makes it somewhat understandable. Still, why is she anywhere near that winners circle? Brad Cox doesn't invade Chad Brown's circle.

She was taking pictures along side Alex Dadoyan with all the photographers. Maybe she has a new job.
