What the Nation is saying about Ron the Greek...

on May 13, Ron the Greek worked 4F at Belmont Park on Fast Dirt in :48.56 b finishing 34/96.
It looked like the big favorite was in danger, but Game On Dude dug in gamely to hold off his challengers by one-half length at the wire of the $1.5 million Charles Town Classic.Read More

  • likin sparks · OTG, I like Ghost Zapper as much as the next guy but if he was subjected to the frequency of GOD's races I think his outcome would have been much different. Anyways GOD has surpassed GZ's winnings by over a million dollars maybe to you that's pocket change but to me it's sheet load more and something tells me he's not finished yet. It all depends on how you look at it... · 30 days ago ·

  • travel_vic · on a bull ring, the straightaways (check out Fairplex for example) are so short, even the presser types have a very hard time catching the controlling speed. At Hastings wire to wire horse win in the Summer with such repetitiveness it is crazy, just for that reason. · 30 days ago ·

Taking nothing away from the Dude. He didn't like the surface, didn't get the lead, etc, but overcame with great talent. BUT, Ron The Greek had a terribly unfortunate stretch run, first getting the door closed when trying to split rivals, then getting the door closed when first attempting the rail.
  • tmallios1 · aviator.in all respect the horse ron the greek ran huge.it was the guy on his back that was clueless.on that bullring he sat chilly in the back til the backstretch.when he finally had him in gear on the turn,why look to come inside.just like normandy invasion.amazing how different the horse looked without lezcano. would love to see ron the greek with a real rider.maybe you would see duplications of his gulfstream park race this year · 32 days ago ·

  • Mary Z. · That inquiry in the Santa Anita Handicap of 2011 was so controversial at the time. maybe it shouldn't have been, once the order of events was clear. Game On Dude was doing fantastically coming into that race with his allowance won over When We Met, though, as I think he is for this year's running. I like Ron The Greek very well, but I really think I'll stick with The Dude. Mike Smith should have him budget out his speed, and win at Dude's favorite track. About the Sunshine Millions, it was a two horse race for the past two years. This year, with Mucho Macho Man out of it early, Ron The Greek was an easy winner. Game On Dude didn't face much in his prep in the San Antonio either. Looking forward to the meeting of two top males, and the very good gelding Called To Serve. Dude, Ron The Greek, Called To Serve. · 88 days ago ·

  • icyhotboo · I haven't seen a form for the race but of the horses familiar to me RTG is usually in top form this time of the year. Game On Dude, if there isn't a horse in there that can force him to the 3/4 in 1:11.0 he'll have it all his own way. · 87 days ago ·
