Who saw it? That was an accurate account of Nakatani. A first class tool! Can't understand why Iggy just took his cheap shot without retaliation. A kid named Isias Enriquez thrashed Cory in the Del Mar jocks room a few years back. The part where he jumps on a treadmill next to Laffit was horribly scripted. Their dialogue was painful to watch.

The Chantal/Kristin Mulhall piece was pretty cool.

I agree. I do like the show but I am amazed that Nakatani "nojockey" doesn't realize that the stewards/jocks/fans/trainers are all gonna hear about what he says. I do like the show even though.

I thought the Chantal/Kristin portion of the show was great. Man I have been in that position before (on both ends, losing a nice horse and sneaking one thru). It truly depicts that situation.

I actually think a show like this is pretty good for the sport. True the race calls get scripted but for the general public to get a glimpse of what goes on is a good thing

I think this show is damaging to the sport. It's probably the worst reality show ever.

Thats the Nakatani that we know in SoCal. People talk about his talent and now you know why he will never be a leading rider anywhere.
