BANG !

This is "bang on" what I believe we all here think about the sport we follow today. Must watch entire video.

An excellent discussion and definitely hit on a number of areas where improvements could/should be made.

Speaking of Irad's rides on Saturday, can someone explain to me just what the hell he was doing on Always Shopping in the last 70 yards or so of the Orchard? I've seen plenty of riders peek behind to see who is coming at them, but not like what he did, at least 3 times and once it was like he half turned around in the saddle and wasn't riding her to the wire. I definitely felt it hurt her chance to hit the wire first, and full disclosure, she was my single in P3,P4 & P6 that kept me from cashing.

He was looking to see where his brother was. She looked a winner all the way . Tough beat. Interesting that the winner was a Keeneland yearling sale for $1200.
