Frank @FrankMirahmadi is probably my favorite thoroughbred announcer. I actually LOVE his celebrity impersonation calls. He won't do them anymore but he should and consider doing it on the final race of any meet he does. Here is a great segment via @FOXSports . Still great at it!

I sort of love it when Baffert wins big races. It's not that I root for him. I do not. It's the fact that all the Baffert haters get their panties in a twist. And all the @ChurchillDowns talking heads disappear from X (twitter).

Giving more power to rich owners/top trainers to drive policy is NOT the solution. This is how we got here in the first place.

If you listened to what the Judge said, he is looking a valid reason why CDI decided to extend the ban. Seeing as how Baffert did not fail any tests for 2 years or violate any rulings made by CDI as punishment, this is a bad foreboding for CDI IMO.

The need to push young horses hard to make the Derby ruins the career of a lot of young horses. And they end up in claimers or long layoffs a year later. But sadly it also kills a lot of horse before they even step foot into the Derby gates.

If you offer full competitive fields and have tons of prices and large payoffs (esp in P4 and P5), people will bet. They could care less about what surfaces the races are on. Synthetic won't deter betting.

And thus another reason to stop pretending Joel Rosario is an elite Top 10 jock. He is not. I get that War Like Goddess is a closer. But he kept the horse wide and last and had no sense of pace presence.

Wow! What a last minute rally by the #1 (Ichiban). Sick beat if you had the #2 (April Antics). Of course who trains the winner? Do you even have to ask??? Linda Rice Ridden by the returning from injury Jose Ortiz.

@barshoelife With all due respect, you are an enabler to Swifty’s cons ( @swifthitter ). It’s one thing to support him as a friend, it’s another to publicly dismiss his victims and his bad deeds. You have repeatedly said “no one cares” about what Swifty does or did. Instead you promote him.

I/others are getting tired of the @swifthitter misleading posts and lies. I am not talking about Baffert saga. Anyone who cheats should be exposed and prosecuted. But that includes Swift Hitter himself. He has been lying and posting lies about his own personal saga. Here is one!

Nicole Dicostanzo and Bongiornos banned from Meadowlands what is being suspected as race fixing. Jenn Bongiorno a quick rising trainer made her name at Yonkers (slot welfare purses). Rumors of juicing follows her. Yonkers in general is full of them.

For those of you who are really interested in the Ramon Preciado story since he was banned in 2016 and what he has been up to lately, here is a great article by @paulickreport . You need to read the full article to appreciate the info in it.

Do you think you would ever see Brad Cox, Steve Asmussen, Bob Baffert or Chad Brown ever do this after a big race? NOT! They would be too busy running into the Winner's Circle to get credit and their ego stroked.

Hey, @TheAthletic , do you want to hire me as your horse racing correspondent? I have 40 years experience in horse racing and NHL! But this article clearly shows writer does not follow the sport when she mentions 2 defunct tracks and 1 that no longer runs thoroughbred racing! :)

River Tay breaks her maiden stylishly on the turf in Saratoga Race 3 despite being surrounded by closers. @jockeykdavis showing that whips are overrated in horse racing. Great strong hand ride to the wire despite losing whip in what seemed like an impossible win deep stretch.

Well known for years by many especially on the backstretch as being one of those trainers who bends and breaks rule but hardly gets caught. This time they did.

VIEWER DISCRETION ADVISED. (1/2) People may not agree w/me posting this. Not a PETA supporter (too extreme). I am PRO horse. But these sales/showcase workouts have gotten out of hand. Part of the reason we have more younger horses breakdown. We can no longer tolerate the results

@tatianaryann18 @SwiftHitter LOL. I think they all want to avoid him like the plague right now. Swifty's @swifthitter video is "being" UPS-ed to @BloodHorse , @raypaulick to @hisa_us and @theTDN as we speak. I am sure he will send us the tracking numbers soon. :)

The Truth - Swifty's court case (7 of 8) LIE: Swifty and his attorney agree to the verdict and indicates Swifty will make reparations within the month (a lie). TRUTH: He still has not paid the victim and remains on probation. So any other criminal act violates his probation.

Every jurisdiction now scared sh*tless and/or afraid of HISA/public backlash. They are beginning to toss big name trainers under the bus. No more "hidden" or swept underneath the rug long held adjudications. Waiting for CD to turn on Cox and Assmussen.

NOTE to American Tracks This is how turf racing surface, field sizes horses & racing should look like in case you want to get better. But why bother, right? You can dress up horse manure like a sizzling steak to horse gamblers and most will still consume it. #HongKongRacing

I heard about this on Friday and got details from a source close to Bryson. I decided not to post because people will jump to conclusions. Bottom line - wrong place, wrong time, wrong people. Charges probably leverage to testify against real shooter.

Intentional herding really needs to be outlawed IMO. This is what leads to some of the aggressive riding we see today. If your drifts over 3 or more lanes herding it should be ground for a DQ. But NY has gotten soft on this and now riders like Ortiz use it as a riding tactic.
