Drayden Van Dyke
 

He has to be the most overrated rider in southern California right now. Heaven forbid he has to ride a horse other than an arm chair ride.
He is Aaron Gryder at best.

6 races yesterday where he was odds on choice and blew it on 4 of them on his own. Today he managed to burn a 1 to 5 shot to the ground and finish last. As soon as he wins a race where he 3 to 1 or more, then he is touted as the second coming of chris McCarron.

he's lost quite a few on Baffert horses too, wonder how much longer he will get to ride for him.

"He is Aaron Gryder at best."


Aaron says thank you! :{>::{>:


Well Armed and Aaron Gryder winning the Dubai World Cup

He was in the 5 -6 mil range for most years but last year was a standout for him. 11 mil.

Still young and many jockeys will have up and down years. It's still early in the year.

If he would have lost the Sunland Oaks, he would have been raked over the coals like no other.
