Paco Lopez Stiffs

[Dahoss]

Figure I could start a thread detailing the horses he totally stiffs. Exhibit A is Bourbon in May in the 7th at Gulfstream today. Feel free to add some of your favorite Paco stiffs.

Who hasn't been f'd? We could do one of these on every jockey. Whats the point? Today Paco, tomorrow.....(pick one)

[Dahoss]

I wasn’t f’d. Didn’t bet the race. Just watched it and watched a rider stiff a horse.

Didn’t realize you were the arbiter of what should and shouldn’t be posted. Good to know.

I'm sure it will never happen again. An arbiter is someone who settles a disagreement, I don't see one here.

The word was used correctly.

I find it funny you don’t deem this worthy of discussion but you’ve turned your attention to the Derby from 25 years ago and are responding to posts from 5 years ago.

Stick to drawing pictures of horseys.

By the way, recognizing when a potential stiff happens is pretty important going forward for betting purposes. I realize betting is a foreign thing to you, but some here actually do care.

Even if it wasn’t a stiff, it was a horrendous trip and the horse rates a look next time. Personally, I find this kind of discussion much more important than rehashing a conspiracy theory from 25 years ago but maybe I’m in the minority there. I hope not.

You know nothing about me or my wagering and I wasn't discussing the "conspiracy" 25 years ago until someone else brought it up.

I guess you like being an antagonist so go ahead and blame Paco and any other jock for your losses and call out every "stiff". You must be one the smart big shot gamblers around here.

They brought it up FIVE years ago. The thread is FIVE years old. The person that brought it up has about 3 working brain cells and I might be exaggerating.

As I said, I didn’t bet the race yesterday. Serious question...did you even watch the race in question?

Stick to horsey pictures.

Why does it matter how old the post is? It happened right? Its on the board for some reason!

The point was, you don’t think talking about a race from yesterday is worthy of anyone’s time, but a race from 25 years ago and a thread from 5 years ago is.

Makes sense.

Did you watch the race yesterday?

So what exactly is your issue with the thread if you haven’t watched the race?

[Alabama Stakes]

It looked like Paco was thinking about moving a muscle but decided against it. Of course after the hoss dragged him up another hoss’ ass, he did have to grab him hard before returning to not persevering. He wasn’t alone on hold in there either.

Upon further review.....

broke with the field
5 wide first turn, settled at back of pack
disappeared off screen down the backstretch
last at the 3/4 pole.
last at the 1/4 pole.
begins to make move at top of stretch
7 comes in, 2 comes out blocked
tries to go inside gets shut off by the nine
7/8....all hope is lost.

not the greatest ride but definitively not the worst. looked like he had horse under him, this would be more of a troubled trip than a "stiff" ride.

I agree with the post race commentary.https://www.equibase.com/static/char...062420USA7.pdf

Of course I know absolutely nothing about horse racing but at least my man Paco didn't have a buzzer. However He does have a trophy that I gave him.

and here is my next "horsey" I've been drawing her for a while now and Her name is Winx and she is a great champion. She isn't finished yet but when done She will be beautiful.

If you would have named this thread "Stiffs" I wouldn't have any issue. It is calling out only Paco when this **** happens every day.

He’s the most reckless rider in the country, has almost killed multiple riders and lacks effort more often than not. But hey....you handed him a trophy 15 years ago so nevermind.

I’d love a copy of your Winx drawing. Will definitely come in handy if we have another toilet paper shortage.
