I'll be blunt, if it wasn't for him, I would lose 75% of my interest of this site.

He's funny, he pushes the line, he does contribute many angles that many people think of saying but don't say and he creates action on here.

Is he perfect on here? No. But so what? His pros completely outweigh his cons.

I never met him. Don't care to meet him. Just a neutral independent party.

I'm no one on the totem pole, probably lead the back of the pack but those are my 2 cents.

Only one I see trying to hump something or someone around here is you with that snide remark.

Got nothing contributory to say, please stay quiet.
No I am not trying to be cool. I am saying that he acts like a hump quite a bit. Some good posts some bad posts, just a lot of hump. It is not the worst thing in the world ,guys like Jim Rome and others have made a living at it.

And I officially go berzerk ...

Wouldn't be surprised to see David Flores end up there. I can't believe I bet this dud at Del Mar.

Next time you have the urge to bet David Flores, send the money here instead.

Yup, all Emerald needs is a few more "rating" artists like Coupon and Mr. I was rating the speed 7 lengths back.

Wait, maybe Flores can ride at Belmont?

I know I know....I should remember when Haley's Comet passes by as it only happens once in what, 70 odd years?

When did Lepa actually win a race? Who was he on?

How did he actually win a race? I can't remember.

Leparoux rides like they do in Europe, holding horses hard and trying to wait but it seems that he often chokes the run out of them. I don't know if he should be chastised too much for his poor Saratoga meet, however, several jockeys are having terrible meets. If you're not riding good horses for the top barns it's tough to win at Saratoga. Corey Lanerie is 0 for 48 and there are six other riders that have a good amount of rides and few or no wins.

Remember betting Leparoux 1 or 2 summer meets back at Del Mar and he sent his horse to the front, talk about a poor job of rating a horse on the front end, guy next to me said he doesn't know how to do that.

Agreed on previous comment, he will somehow manage to be on fire when back in Kentucky.

Lots of jocks in the room at Saratoga are fat and happy given the NYRA purse structure.
Look at the turf races at Belmont and it's continued at Saratoga. Very few people other than Carmouche, Saez or Cancel are riding aggressively. Everybody seems fine with 49 halfs and a sprint home. 2nd or 3rd is good money.

Leparoux has one style, strangle them off the gate, make one run and hope they out sprint everyone home.

Ironically I actually bet his lone Saratoga winner a turf sprinter for Mark Casse!! LOL

Lanerie just lost a very winnable race, the beat goes on for Americas most overrated rider.

What could Lanerie have done different with either Barton Holt or I'mbetterthangood to make them win?

Ugh! Leparoux's ride on TAX DEDUCTION in the 4th was so amateurish it leads me to wonder how this guy could ever have been a leading rider at any North American flat meet. It's ok to try and make one run, but you kinda have to try to come inside somebody at some point in a race, especially a turf sprint!
