What exactly do you want him to do, drive bold with crap. Then you'd be saying he's a idiot for driving that way. He drives mostly race fillers, he doesn't get any power, how's he gonna drive different. He's just trying to make a living.

Btw, not trying to sound mean, but did he lose a family member or something? Every time he does win, he kisses his fist, pounds his chest then raises his arm to the sky looking upward, in the winner's circle. If this is in tribute to someone he cared about and lost, then I respect that.

That is called thanking god for allowing him to make a living doing what he does best

Perfectly stated and like my friend Theo if you are catching him at a price, i congratulate you. I accept the fact that it is the only winning formula for him.

You mean like every fucking baseball player that gets a seeing eye single, then stops at first, makes the sign of the cross and gives thanks to God? Ok fine. I would wait for the big moments but i respect his reverence.

No, I do not expect him to drive stupid without power. He should go where can win. I still think he cheats too. Sorry

I don’t dispute he’s not a second tier driver at Yonkers. And man, he has the most brain dead drives than anyone at YR the past few years. But I have no issue betting him at a price when I think he’s leaving the gate. He doesn’t exactly get that many live drives, I mean after Bartlett, Brennan, Kakaley and Jordan, the rest of the colony gets the scraps.
       

        Its just a gang sign to his brothers

1W, 3Pl, 2Sh, 1-4th Wed night at YR. Also broke with a fav and up the track with a long shot. $28,530 in purses. $1,426 for Mr. Holland and his family. Not a bad Wednesday night.

Good post, and oh, by the way, they pay money to the first five finishers.

Theo, my friend, he STINKS to high heaven. He is ripping every one off. getting the worst horse most races because he is the worst driver most races. It is cyclical. Most races he is in a different dimension than the rest of the field.

Are you speaking of Joe Bongiorno?

Holland, 3rd race tonight, cha-ching. Sends and scores, much the best.
