That damn jockey fell of that damn horse Sid!
Last race at GP today. Think he whipped a few too many times, the horse shied, and down he went. Had the race in hand too. Crazy.

Cost somebody the Rainbow six too, about 1/2 million dollars.

I hope he did not get trampled - it may have cost Emisael Jaramillo much more.

Yeah, certainly wish him well. He didn't get trampled for sure. He did stay down, might have been clipped.

He was ahead by at least 5-6 lengths and I thought I had the race easily won, the next thing is I see is the jock jumping off the horse and I am wondering what is going on. No replays either!

He wasn't ahead by nearly that much but the race was in hand. He certainly didn't jump off.

Gulfstream is such a low-class operation.
They don't show the REPLAY after the race.
No explanation given.
No word on the condition of the jockey.

So he slipped off the horse.. he did look pretty inept, kind off like he was jumping off.
He was going to be my "secret" for this meet. He reminded me a lot of Eibar Coa, another Venezuelan.

Yes, GP showed before the race there was ONE live ticket on numbers 8 & 9, respectively, for the entire jackpot. Which would have been approximately 500k, since about 450k is now being carried over to tomorrow.
Just me, but, I think these jackpot-style bets are bad for the sport. Too much possibility exists for collusion or funny-business. Remember the Fix6 and all the bad press around that. Also remember the time Gulfstream stewards DQ'd the lone winner of the Rainbow 6 a few years ago.

It looked to me like the was either getting tired or being lazy and the jockey wanted to keep him to his business.
