You mean besides sitting 3/4 of a mile on the outside.

Tucking 5th from the 8 hole and then way way backing the horse way off what was a super slow pace of over 30 from again that 5 hole.

How about cover trip down the backstretch where your cover with the better post position but lesser horse gets the lead.

And you as the pocket 6 bears out of the pocket and you can't go forward otherwise you lock wheels, and make no adjustment and 3rd on the rail beats him for 3rd.

Must of been thinking of his next podcast.

And how to explain this bs, 4th.

Nothing to see here  ngc3

He was bad on a line, anyone can see that, and it's been going on.

Maybe that has to do with the way F face sits in the bike.

Taking the poor horse to it's limit for 3/4's of a mile. 

He cherry picks his horses, has virtually unlimited funds and drives at 13% avg.

He's a MacDonald too, which now knows to let the younger one get on and step the F off.

Everyone write him a blank check tonight - all in!  ngc3

When LA's head was resting on Sugg's shoulder or Page had to jam the brakes not to run him over because it was hardly a courtesy tuck because those guys wouldn't piss on him if he was on fire.  ngc3

Where's Swandre I mean AMac to defend himself here, I demand his presence  ngc3

He has this weird technique of slowly debilitating a horse by extremely leaning his body to the left while he alone is compensating for the turn, along with using the reigns for the horse.

While no other driver does it  ngc3

That's why he has shatter proof glass on the driver's side window in his vehicle  ngc3

One the right line really bad. Could see his head nodding pretty good as they passed under the wire. Got cooked really bad in next generation. What could have been a pretty nice colt is now just an ordinary horse. Too bad he took the heart out of this fella.

No worries AMac will pull blood in the morning to see why he was on a line, if the scope didn’t explain anything 😁
