I can't figure Oaklawn out. Sometimes on TVG, sometimes TVG2. Guess it depends how big the racing is on a particular day.

Maybe we could have been treated to Castellano say, "well, ju know. I jus want to sank the trainer and the owner for this opportunity" in severely broken English. At least Desormeaux gives you an honest and candid account of the race. His interview on Roy H (I think that's his name) after winning the BC Sprint was excellent.
Folks just love to give Kent shit and that's the bottom line.
Get over it and find some new material y'all
Kent is a pretty straight shooter

Come on, Kent has earned plenty of it. Also, practically any jockey is a straight shooter after they win. And for the record I like Kent. He was the king of Maryland for a while where I'm from and I seem to do better betting on him than I do with some others.

Man, for my money Kent is the most talented rider I have ever seen...that being said anything publicity wise he has to deal with he pretty much brought on himself.

Given his illustrious career, given his talent, I actually think he underachieved. He could have been the best of all time.

He's a good rider....when he perseveres all the way to the wire.
Which he doesn't always do.

I just have no desire to listen to him ramble on and on in an interview. He reminds me of Pat "Talk all" Day.

I can't listen to Day or Bailey, I'd rather hear a fly fart.

Now Kent and really Eddie D. of old, they both crack me up!!!

I'm just tired of the same old same old when jocks are being interviewed. They usually just thank the connections and praise their mount...in broken English LOL.
I think a bilingual person should interview these jocks in Spanish and translate for us. They sound terrible trying to speak English...as would I if you interviewed me in Spanish.
