Rosario

[Dana666]

Man, I\'m old enough to have seen a lot of great jockeys. I\'ve never seen anyone in the zone that this guy is in. Absolutely unreal.

[JimP]

If he were a vet everybody would be talking about what he\'s using. So what\'s he using? He seems to be moving horses up as much as the super trainers. Anybody done any studies on Rosario move ups?

[covelj70]

funny on Rosario, I completely agree that he is riding out of his mind and that he\'s the best in the game right now except....

...that I got his one awful ride of 2013 on Screenplay on Derby Day.

I really thought the horse couldn\'t lose as he had the best numbers, best pattern and he should have been lone speed and he has run his best races at that distance on that turf course.

We told him in the paddock to be forwadly placed, if not right on the lead, then just off

So what happens?  He misses the break and then instead of going to the front or taking back, gets stuck in between and we get a 4w4w trip and then he gets us into big trouble again at the 1/8th pole.

So, we wind up getting put up to 3rd via DQ even though the horse runs a new career burried top!

Morale of the story?

no idea other than I am still upset about it and I needed to write about it here because it\'s cheaper than therapy!

Horse in the todays 9th , his 4th winner, he never touched the whip , didn\'t even look at it. Guess supreme confidence shows.

Electric buzzers?

Jim

Read a story on him and I think that was the day he heard that one of his brothers had been killed in a motorcycle accident.

[jimbo66]

No.  It wasn\'t that day.

It was Derby day, the same day Orb won.

It was a horrific ride on Screenplay.  I also thought he couldn\'t lose Jim, had him singled as \"lone speed with the best numbers\".  Could not believe he gave the horse that awful ride.  

Then a few hours later, bingo, Derby win.

[Dana666]

His buzzer is confidence. The horses feel it too.

[pacehandicapper]

It just goes on and on, needed Marathon Lady, felt golden turning for home but here HE comes again.

[rhagood]

Blinkers on but takes back (she never really passed horses before) and makes the long run which is right up his ally. If Orb encounters any trouble in the Preakness that may well look the finish again near the wire, if not more like the derby.

[plasticman]

I could have sworn he had a family tragedy last year on the day of the Preakness and was still there to ride. Did he have another tragedy on Derby day this year?

[Tavasco]

Rosario brother died early in the day of last years (2012) Preakness per replay shown on NBCSN Fri nite. RIP

[pacehandicapper]

The worst of it for me is, in the SA Oaks I liked her to sit the trip behind Beholder and maybe get by her late, was alive for a very nice collection in the p5 that day.  Them today I use 3 with her being the chalky one of the 3, and she gets by my best one late.  In the words of Charlie Brown aaaarrrggghhh.

[JimP]

Come on guys. If this were a trainer winning like this everybody would be talking about what illegal substances were being used. Surely Rosario must be doing something illegal. What other explanation could there be for such a streak. Let\'s hear it.

[Lost Cause]

I fell ur pain...Blown up by him in that race also for p5\'s and P4\'s...He is riding first time on a bunch today that look good also..  Hopefully he wins a bunch early and percentages catch up to him in the preakness..
