Note to w.o. -please ride my selections out to the finish. you've made great strides amidst a career year. i am very good friends with your agent and have rightfully praised one or two of your rides as real gems in the last month. but what happened last night can NEVER happen.

Also seen the turf there so long, I offered to trailer my mower out there for them to use. If you see a condition, and think its affecting the race, adjust your handicapping.

Mountaineer is unplayable. Too many 4k claimers that quit more than Lana Turner.

Here's a list, but it may be stale

That list is ancient. I'll post a current one. Curious what you want it for, sir? If it's the psychology of why which jocks ride what horses, I often peel the curtain back (just enough to make those involved a bit uncomfortable) and delve into this on the show.

But just to be very clear, I would never, ever, consciously show favoritism or outright pander to any rider. They all hate me alike, which enables me to look myself in the mirror.
