I think the jockey did the best thing for the horse....and he never said the horse was injured, he simple said something was wrong, and he was right, when he asked the horse, the horse didnt have it so he protected him....Dutrow's trying to protect his own rep after running his mouth for the better part of the last month....

I don't consider racing a horse, a sport. It's like water polo. It's a rich persons' hobby.

This is exactly why I find the entire spectacle disgusting: a dude eases off because he's concerned about the well-being of his horse and he gets vilified.

Have you ever attempted to play water polo? It is a ridiculously difficult sport.

According to my copy of ESPN: The Magazine, Jason Kidd believes water polo players are the best athletes in any sport.
