I don't hold that against him. He is not alone in terms of cashing in. Who doesn't do that? I think most jockeys would do it as well except that they can't because they don't have what it takes. I don't understand the criticism of Bailey that I often hear. When I listen to the man its no wonder he was so great on a horse, he thinks and has a brain. He seems confident but I don't hold that against him.
