Pincay , Eddie D. and Cordero , those guys would make monkeys of most the "good" riders right now.

by far and away, and i mean this as sincerely as is possible for a post on a message board, the best ride i ever saw was the ride the jock gave the first time starter named MOBO to a second place finish in the third race saturday at Santa anita.

he was trained by oneill, and if it werent for the fact that there was another oneill fts in the race, he for surely would have won with that remarkable ride!

of course, the charts wont tell you the whole story, so it's best to have seen it, or go to calracing to watch it.

P Val over any of them

Yes but Ruffian would be his most famous mount. Rode Onion when he beat Secretariat at Saratoga. Had this little issue in that he occasionally would set up betting coups

He definitely has the gift.
Rode Pval in a grade 1 stake, got left. My luck....

Isn't Jorge Ricardo ahead of Baze now?

I hate to say that I might see a pattern here. I hope not, LOL.
