This is about driving the horses not training because heavy trainers are a good workout for the horse. tmbz1

So we are watching the races yesterday and commenting on how big some of these drivers are at Hawthorne.

So one of the guys goes to the kiosk where the driver's weight is listed and writes it down. 53zva.1

We all put in a dollar and guessed the amount. 11.wp

The lowest guess was 250. ngc3 ngc3

And judging by the size on the tv 250 seemed low. ngc3

The listed weight was 220!  76za.dcg

No friggin way that was the correct weight! 91zxa.1

We get it that most of the heavier guys are not catch drivers but when was the last time some of them have seen 220?

I’m good with 300 or less assuming you can get your feet on the strrips and your belly sucked in. It’s still 75% the horse.

The real question is how stupid are the retards betting on his weight?
It’s like betting on how tall an NBA player is who cares he’s playing in the NBA and your watching HIM gimpy.
