At least now I know where I stand with you and believe me that's very important to me because you probably have the best opinion here.
That guy is an anti-semitic imbecile. I'm sure you already knew that.
Thar guy can't find his own ass with a flashlight and a sherpa. Fucking moron he be.
Lauren Tritton---"What also is quite different is that we don’t driveto the tote board, where here it’s kind of post positionsand the tote board that dictate where you put a horse." Very trueIMHO-its what ruins racing in USA. The same drivers in every race-and most have preconceived ideas before the gate opens and look at the tote board to determine their tactics like Lauren says.-leading to Indian File racing with few moves.After watching real racing from France-and Down Under---its infinitely more entertaining-and most horses get their chance to win.Here- the ones designated by drivers before the gate even opens and dragged to the back of the field--even if it was actually capable to win--it cant because it was positioned to lose.This hurts racing as a spectacle-and gamblers drop off.
Very accurate statement! Unfortunately the drivers don't look to hurt each other. As an owner I want my horse raced to win. Wether I'm 1-9 or 99-1 race the horse!!!
As an owner I also expect the best effort everytime it races. But some couldn't care less it's costing the owner money. They just hop on the next horse.
