Default Eddie Martin Jr.
There has been a lot of talk on here about where he will winter and even I said that he would remain in New York - but it apears as though some things have changed....he is not happy with his business there with riding 3-4 longshots everyday and is now seriously considering coming back to New Orleans for the FG meet. Itr is complicated ad personal why he wasn't originally coming to FG this winter, but now that it is affecting his income he is seriously considering it if business faisl to pick up in the next week at AQU.

Thought some of you would like to know.....

I work with one of his cousins or at least he claims to be, maybe he knows something...He knows him, because when EMJ comes to TP, he gets some good info, too bad I haven't listened to him...

If you only knew the situation - then, combine his personal situation with the fact that he is one of the more random jockeys out there (which is saying alot) - you'd understand.....

I am personal friends with who his agent would be if he were to go to FG and he said he talks to him daily and Eddie changes his tune every day. Sound surprising from a jock?

Actually, I never mentioned any names...I said I knew his agent and another guy said he knew his cousin, yet you never bashed him for "name dropping"....do you want to remain informed or not? If not, then why did you even click on to read this thread that was named Eddie Martin Jr.?

I don't quite get all of the 'haters' on here sometimes......
