The senseless dribble!!
Anyone watching AND listening to HRTV this morning??The derby analysis that JoAnne Jones has spewed out has got to be the biggest pile of senseless dribble I have ever heard.She basically has said War chance has no shot and she can't play him.Her horse is Elysium Fields,a recent maiden winner.This is the same JoAnne Jones who said,and I have it on TAPE,that she was done betting Funny Cide,then after he wins the derby,she had the nerve to say she picked this horse.A week later,she was gone from TVG.Where the F>>k do they get these idiots?

What she said is accurate-War Chance has no shot. And she can't play him.

I don't mind her too much except when she starts raving about jockeys. she loves to talk about them and when she does she gets that twinkle in her eye like she has a thing for them............if you know anything about body language she comes off like she is in heat when she talks about a few of them

I am pretty sure P Val was squeezing her back in the 80s.

Now, Now
She'll have to hit a cold streak to descend to the level of, oh, Ken Rudolph, John White, Laffit "Dead Eyes" Pincay, Mr. Lurie (Peter ?), Todd Schrupp, and all the clowns that pick four or more runners per race. That's not even counting the "pagliacci" on the radio side.

My only thought........the woman needs to get her hair out of her eyes, rather that is, out of one eye. I cannot listen to anything anyone has to say, male or female, that has to peep out of their hair.
She was easier to watch when she was doing Gulfstream.

I've seen senseless dribble in a basketball game but not at the races!
As the daughter of the self-proclaimed Pick Six King, PROFESSOR Gordon Jones, Joanne knows all the tricks and cons of the racetrack, including how to tout!

What's dribble? It's drivel.

"Attending the pace," every other phrase is worse than drivel.

Why isn't this one used more in racing?
pari passu
/parri passoo/
• adverb side by side; equally or equivalently. At an equal pace or rate.
— ORIGIN Latin, ‘with equal step’.
