That jockey Mike Smith whipped the Derby winner to death to get him going into stretch in the Preakness?
I think you have a very tired little horse there and I expect nothing from him in the Belmont.
I will stick with fresher horses like Charitable Man and Dunkirk. :cool2:

    WHY DO YOU INSIST ON DEFAMING JOCKEYS AND HORSES...IT IS RATHER TIRESOME TO READ YOUR COMMENTS...THEY ARE 99% OF THE TIME NEGATIVE...JOCKEYS CARRY WHIPS...SO JOCKEYS USE WHIPS...w2w

    W2W .... what are you talking about ? I have been watching racing for 40 years and I have rarely seen any jockey hit a horse like Mike did when he first pulled it out. The first 4 or 5 whacks looked pretty brutal to me and I asked if anyone else noticed it.

    I am not defaming Mike Smith or the horse I am making an observation. If I am wrong let me know but did he or did he not whack the hell out of the horse ?
