Really Desormeaux? Classic Kent chilly finish to lose 2nd

[Cuffdaddy]

Del Mar Race 4. 8/25

Kent on Take a Leap at 13 -1 pulls the ultimate Kent wrap up, look back and gear down like he has 2nd wrapped up only to get nosed out. Time for another suspension!

Cost me trifecta so I was focused on his run thru the stretch. Would of paid at least $400 for fifty cents. Thanks again Kent.

I wouldn't bet the drunken hump in a 1 horses race with your money! I hate to even hear his name mentioned.

[Cuffdaddy]

He is still talented and horses run for him but even though I've seen him do this particular move many times it is just so blatant. If he was drinking the buzz hit him the last 75 yards in this one.

Only Eddie D. can wrap up and hold on everytime

the race was lost at 1:37 point on the replay you so kindly provided, evidently Kent was afraid of running up on heels of the lead horse, it was a short, but sharp restraint. The horse was loaded for bear alright. Plus, the lead horse drifted out just enough to let the eventual winner thru, who would not have had that spot had Kent waited, inside. Either way, big difference, getting thru inside or taking overland route.

didn't watch the race tonight.


He lost a tri for me earlier this meet(8/3/2018 R6) I had the keyed top/bottom in exactas with some horses including Desormeaux's 22/1 shot .

-Looked a certainty to pass a tiring pace setter(31/1 ) while in the hunt for victory, but then a third horse came running late moving best of all to take over. Once the 'win' chance passed Desormeaux by, he appeared to completely stopped riding. In a physics-defying turn of events, the tiring pace setter 'fought back' (not really, was just persevered relative to the Desormeaux shut-down) and Desormeaux somehow lost 2nd by a photo to the .
Finished 4-9 ($174.50), think the 4-3 probable was $150.

Leaving him off P5 tix in 2YO MDN at 5-1. Hoss is Easy Shot. Perhaps last nites dinner?!?

He deserves days. He was not trying.

In response to Kent blocking me on Twitter I am now cutting his face out of all of my winner's circle photos on my wall where he rode for us....lol...that will teach him..

[ClockersCorner]

Such bitterness. Of course it's classic Kent. His talent allows him to win dozens of races no other jockey would and his indifference causes him to lose minor placings that he shouldn't. I'd be mad at him too if it cost me the tri. And kicking myself for keying him in the 2 hole.
I guess you guys hated Manny Ramirez and Phil Mickelson too. And every relief pitcher that grooved a batting practice fastball in the 9th inning of a blowout win.

Only if I bet the UNDER.

Ridiculous comparison.

[ClockersCorner]

Ridiculous indeed. It's all about the frustration of a losing gambler. There should be repercussions.
I have time to post today because I am serving a self imposed one day horse racing betting ban. I got lazy and singled Good Magic to close out the pick 6 and cost myself 5 of 6.
