Irad Ortiz burning money at keeneland

Last 3 days he has won 1 race (3/2 odds)

His losers include odds of 1/2, 4/5, 4,5, 6/5, 3/2, 3/2, 8/5 , 8/5, 2/1, 5/2 , 5/2, 3/1, 3/1, 7/2, 4/1, 4/1

Not a good time to be in a slump this close to the Kentucky Derby.

He must keep be getting karma from the Lexington Stakes where he shoved First Mission into the rail

I wonder what Irad and Saez were thinking

maybe this? (Probably not)

irad1.jpg
Saez: I can sneak up the rail to win this race easily! Thankfully Irad is behaving today and it would be a shame if he sharts shifting into me all of a sudden for no apparent reason *snarfs*

Irad: OH NO YOU WON'T! THIS RACE I WON'T LOSE! I'm going to cut Saez off so that the Twitter horse racing world can spark a "Ban Irad for 5 Days again" tweet


Seconds later;;;;;

irad2.jpg
Saez: Where the HELL did he come from? He was in his lane the entire time now he really wants to kiss my ass! I guess they don't call him "Champion Jockey" for nothing

Irad: Saez I won't let you win this thing! You know I'm the leading jockey everywhere and there is NOTHING you can do to stop me! Just try

A few strides later Saez proves Irad wrong (this time) and sneaks up the rail how he originally was going to do to win The Lexington

Good to know--I thought maybe I was the only one burning money at Keeneland

Keeneland 8th Sunday 4/23

Any thoughts on Irad's ride on Scotland in the 8th at Keeneland Sunday?

I thought he was overconfident and blew it with his need to try to herd Saez's horse through the rail. If he just keeps the horse straight and finishes he probably wins.

I also find it ironic that he stoops to those dangerous tactics again on PDJF day.

He thinks he's Rowdy Yates.
