Default Is Pino a possible guest for the show



I was working in Delaware to day where Mario Pino had several rides today. As I am sure you know Steve you literally can get so close to the jocks you could easily speak with them without raising your voice.

So I said to Mario as he walked by on the way to the track......Mario are you going to be on ATRAB before the Preakness to talk about Hard Spun and your derby ride. He just smiles and says " I haven't been asked......."

Steve is this a guest you would be interested in.......He seems like to be a nice affable guy who is a decent family guy with ethics and morals....

He's a goof.. I asked him Saturday night at the barn. Larry Jones likely tonight, as well as the great Jennie Rees of the Courier-Journal. I'll get Pino whenever DEL is dark this week..

He was great Saturday. GREAT.. And there are some funny stories about what transpired. Pino said when he burst away from the field off the turn, he took a peak for Street Sense and didn't spot him. "Jeez.. I'm gonna win this thing." he said he said to himself...

And before the race, Jones told Calvin Borel, "If you try to pass us on the left today, you're going on the turf course."

If anyone missed Carl Nafzger Monday, I encourage a listen.. His thoughts and comments are important to anyone who wants to understand the difference between trainers and horsemen.
