Love this news, GREAT stakes program! One thing THOUGH...you guys got 2 stakes races for @njbreds males on the turf with identical conditions scheduled 13 days apart (DAN HORN and IRISH WAR CRY). Might want to space those out!! @MonmouthPark

Second incident in a week? When do we make the jump to 30 days? @GulfstreamPark stewards' commitment to curbing reckless riding looks QUITE different when your name isn't Paco Lopez!!
A couple of news items to report. There will be a mandatory force out of the entire Rainbow 6 jackpot here on Saturday and leading jockey Luis Saez received his second 5 day suspension this week for his ride aboard Blakey in Saturday's 6th race.
As someone whose primary (and only) interest in horse racing is gambling, I stand by PACO LOPEZ. Aggression is the name of the game and I could care less what some small scale jockey agent or Julien Leparouxโs wife thinks of it!
Along the same lines, HOW ON EARTH do you give a coach a contract extension in the midst of such an abortion of a season? Iโm not saying to fire the guy but Christ there is absolutely nothing about this that deserves positive reinforcement!
When is someone going to say what needs to be said? This team is unbelievably SOFT. With possibly 1-2 exceptions they come out every night feeling sorry for themselves and put forth yet another NON-EFFORT. Sew it up and have some pride!!
When we start accepting that horse racing is NOT a sportโbut RATHER a game fueled by gambling that supports an entire industryโwe will stop being surprised that nobody on Jeopardy knows (or cares) about Justify or the Triple Crown !!
Hilarious how the day after this news of cooperation comes out, @LaurelPark goes out of its way to run their races on top of @TampaBayDownsFL . But The Stronach Group are "industry leaders". Fuck off!
What in the fuck happened to HUMILITY? Instead of "there is no debate, the horse I bred is Horse of the Year," HOW ABOUT "we're so grateful to be a finalist for this honor alongside 2 other worthy candidates. We think we deserve to come out on top, but may the best horse win"???
So let me get this straight. GULFSTREAM Saturday card:
6 straight $75k stakes races (three of which have only 7 horses)
Followed by 5 "Carribean classic" races with horses we've never heard of
Who bets on this gimmicky bullshit???
So why is it that two of them are spoken about as CRIMINALS and the other is sanctified by the media and slobbered upon by racing fanboys across the land ???
HEY @MonmouthPark consider yourself lucky that the UNITED NATIONS did not lose its Grade 1 status this year. PLEASE increase purse and consider new position on calendar in 2019 !!
@steveedelsonapp@AsburyParkPress STEVE, Los Angeles times reports Frank will continue to call Monmouth during summer months. Do you know if this is true??

Hey @MonmouthPark I watch A LOT of races. Just my two cents but you should take a long hard look at @BettorCallPaul - does a great job at CHARLES TOWN. Also was impressed with @BeemieAwards stint at GP West!
