why the switch of jockeys?
 

does anyone really beleive that the fault of stardom bound losing was mike smiths fault?
the horse has a one and only run
which mike again did like her preious races
but the horse came up short

how can this be mike smiths fault?
could it be possibly[if you looked at the horses 2 wins this year under new trainer frankel]that the horse either digressed as a 3 year old[which they sometimes do]
or wasnt really trained up to her capabilities [look at the way previous trainer trained her as compared to frankel]
i just think smith is getting a bum deal here getting replaced

true
hes getting replaced by the best jockey out there
but i thought winning 5 or 6 in a row and closing for a 3rd would keep you on a horse
i guess loyolty is lost in this sport

Gomez is better.

Tom Amoss needs to address this question. He seems to think that the horse is along for the ride...at least that's what his handicapping suggests.

Assuming Gomez is better than Borel, shouldn't he be riding Rachel A?
