Has anyone confirmed Jorge is coming back East? I didn't hear anything around the track last week, although I was only there toward the end of the week. I also didn't ask so that could be it as well.
From an outsider's perspective, and I haven't been following CA racing extremely closely, but Chavez has had a few good runs and a good meet or two since heading out there. When he first moved out there he said it was for good -- which of course means little at best, and actually means nothing, LOL.
Last time I took notice, he was probably riding at around 13% or 14% for the meet. He did seem to have a lot less rides than others though. I am not a jockey agent, and I certainly don't understand the intracacies of that aspect of the game -- not like an agent of course -- but I just don't think moving back is a strong or favorable move. It might be an emotional or family move, but I haven't spoke with Jorge in a long time.
