View Full Version : Prado Post Race
I don't think I ever seen a jockey so dejected after winning a G1 Stake. It seemed like he was apologizing for winning the race. It was a decent gesture from him. He knew he spoiled the party :(

On TV the announcer said that they could'nt interview Prado because he supposedly had to get ready for the next race.I can understand how Prado might've felt a little crappy but you gotta do your job.

I saw Edgar Prado interviewed right after he won on Birdstone. He did say that he was sorry he spoiled the party but he was just doing his job. A classy response!!
Another classy post race response was when John Servis congradulated Nick Zito for his win.

It's a shame they couldn't revel in their victory. If I was them, I'd enjoy every minute of it. I felt horrible for Marylou having to sit there and apologize for winning! It may have been a class move, but it was totally unnecessary. This is horse racing. You're not going to win the Belmont Stakes every year, so you better ENJOY IT NOW!!
Your Right PA, Win one of the biggest freakin races of the year, and then you feel like you committed a crime.
