He is on the banned list.....

You want to get your boy fired up, have him talk about the banned list, veins pop in his neck! I have been on location when people get added to the banned list. It is great people watching.

This ordeal is hilarious because it all comes down to greed for both parties.

Vic added Garcia, Rosario gets midget rage and looks for a better opportunity.

If you're going to add a second jockey why in the world would it be Martin Garcia? The guy is never going to be an elite rider. Why risk losing your true breadwinner for that slapdick?

Short-sighted buffoonery is why.

Rosario can likely pick the mount back up on Cedros now.

Wow. A friend told me the other day how much he trusted me above anyone else. While accepting the compliment I acknowledged and pointed out the slim pickings involved. Life is cruel. As another friend liked to say when things were REALLY bad, "Keep your chin up."

Well in short hind-sight MG won a 250k race (Southwest) and the 750K Big Cap in the last 2 weeks.

I loved his ride in the Big Cap, he put that horse in the best possible spot from way out there. Softest possible trip because of the ride, I like Garcia.

Yep he is #1 in Vic's book

shouldnt Ebanks be more worried about March Madness than jockey's?

Well he's an elite rider now. Pardon moi.

Just sayin...

Yes and here's more stats..

He's 4th in money earnings.

Now..

He's winning at a horrible 13% and in the money 36%.

The big cap win was a mirage. This guy has been touted as being one of the next great ones since 2006. He's not. To risk losing Rosario for him is stupid.

My point stands.

Ya think? Well, in my opinion(after watching these midget activities for almost 30 years) this was predictable. For a lot of reasons, I think a top jock needs "his own" jock agent. I thought it was a bad move for Vic to pick the 2nd jock up. Obviously, we have opposing opinions on it. Remember when Talamo left this same Eubanks guy? I said these guys are better off with their own agents. I'm sure Joel agreed to it, but, in practice, it just doesn't work well. Dude, when your 2nd jock gets about 40k, and your top jock gets almost nothing? It was gunna test your lil experiment. Test over. All the stuff you two did together wasn't enough to counter this lil sht's anger over Marty get 40k, and him getting zip. So, people can tell me it works, but I just don't think the 2 jock thing works very well. The only thing that could of avoided this is not getting another jock to rep. What would you've done if J told you to pick 1? Again, a bad situation.

I agree with this, especially when the other agent is calling him and telling the PO'ed jockey that should have been his horse.
