In a 1 3/8 mile race there is no excuse for poor position. Kinda reminds of a bad trip that a horse of Michael Dickenson got from a jockey ( was it T. Turner?,no it was someone else) in a 4 horse field a number of years ago at Laurel.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8711985.post-84252927094174108262007-02-24T23:06:00.000-05:002007-02-24T23:06:00.000-05:00Alan,I'm glad someone like you was able to see how...Alan,<BR/><BR/>I'm glad someone like you was able to see how awful Bejarano's ride on Einstein was.<BR/><BR/>He made his move too soon, too. He just is not a top tier rider. He's a B to the likes of Prado as an A, Johnny V. gets a A- in my book. The go to jocks are clearly Prado and Garrett Gomez. I'd rate Nakatani a notch below Johnny V. and put Castellano in there as well.<BR/><BR/>Bejarano has cost Einstein two wins at GP during this meet. The wins Einstein had there last year was his doing, not the jocks. This one needs a new jock.Jim Lhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12868430639026487238noreply@blogger.com
