Default Jon White, You Are A Genius!!

I Cannot Wait For Next Years Derby. Jon White Has A System That He Doesnt Even Know About. Take His Horses With 5 Strikes, Mine That Bird; Play Them Over His Horses With No Strikes. Would Have Got You Tri, Super, Exacta, High 5, House Close To Malibu Etc.

jon white is a nice guy but his handicapping is average at best.

he tells you what you already know and never commits to a solid pick.

his comments like "this one merits respect" and "should be considered a contender" are as weak as a twig!

I thought this would be about Jon White's unabashed championing of Pioneerof the Nile, who did not run a bad race, all things considered.

he got beat by 7, and if he didnt impede the other horses in the lane he might not have even been in the money.

i'm tired of gomez and his i'm better than you b.s.

If he really picks the favorites in every race, I'll bet anything he is much better than 10%.

you will notice there is no dunkirk or pioneer so dont tell me about picking favorites.

and i am not disappointed that mine that bird won.

in fact i love it, because that is why this is a GREAT SPORT!,,, and you can get 103.20 on a 2 dollar bet!
