RAMON DOMINGUEZ
A typical day for the best rider in the country.
RACE-1 6/5 2ND
RACE-3 3/2 WON
RACE-4 4-1 2ND
RACE-5 4/5 3D
RACE- 6 9/5 2ND
RACE-8 2/5 2ND
RACE-9 4/5 OUT
Rode in 8 races 7 of them favorites, 3 of them odds on, and he managed to win a total of 1 race,he thought that he had won the 6th too but he got beat, because the horse that beat him was ridden by MARAGH who is much better than him.

How can this be seen as a bad day?-lots of in the money action, and this is with having everyone else in these fields keying on his mounts as the one to beat......while many guys rattle off a string on any given day, this appears to be much more in line with typical, and my money sez stats bear this out.....

Good day for Dominguez 's bank account, bad day for the chalk players.

I can put up tons of charts like that for Cordero,Shoemaker,Pincay,etc,etc. Just wasn't his day. Doesn't make him less of a jockey. Are we really calling out one day to say a rider is not good?

Anyone backing that plug in the nightcap should really review form cycles.

Last time i bet on Dominguez, he was still riding at DEL. AND HE WASN'T ON THE CHALK, i make my living betting against the chalk, especially DOMINGUEZ.

In the winter he was on the chalk every race most of them odds on, and riding against very bad riders,now the good jockeys like,Maragh C.VZ, are back so he's not going to have it easy anymore, look at today's 6th he thought he was home free, but here comes RAJIV and snatches the victory away from the best rider in the country,guess where i had my money.

Oh yeah totally agree, surely a better colony of jocks right now but he did have some decent prices on horses that he went out front with and put the field to sleep or saved ground with and took a rail ride. Bottom line is no jock is going to keep winning at 30% in a good colony of jocks and Ramon is a fine rider and I dont think a few loses or a bad day here and there makes him any less of a rider. That's all.

After a day like that, I suppose he should be riding at Penn National.

TZIPI, I agree w/ you he is not a bad rider, but all these posts about how he is the best rider in the country, and like he is the 2nd coming of WILLIE THE SHOE, makes me want to point out why i think he is not that good, riding the best horse almost every race,and riding against very weak riders,will make anybody look good.

Seems right to me favorites are in the money 75% of the time are they not?
