TGJB: Ground loss, ground loss, ground loss. That\'s the advantage of giving rider instructions.

covelj70: Yeah. At least this one listened.

Funny how the 0 for 32 jocks follows instructions to a t and the all stars completely ignore us.

CHOWDERMAN: have you tried to get joe rocco....he did real well on the turf at gp this winter...today at ap he came up the rail with a real nice one...he\'s been riding his ass off...

covelj70: Love Rocco. Think he\'s terrific.

Used him om Citrus kid and coach royal

That said, he\'s a big strong guy. Can\'t put him on the little ones like Oscar party or falling sky. He\'s too big and strong for them.

If you have a big strong horse, he\'s one of the best in my opinion.

Silver Charm: Good stuff Jim and thanks for sharing this thinking. If its any consolation I know that Derby Day they really liked Atigun (found out AFTER the race via a pre-race text....ugh) on the Turf and he validated some of that form in the Louisville Handicap yesterday. Should be a fun Saratoga for people.....

Met.and Belmont Day are first.
