If only I knew how to bet when he was a bug rider. Don't get me wrong, I cashed on a good portion of his rides back then (some bomb a$$ prices to boot), but I always think of how much more it would have been if I actually knew then what I know now.
It seemed to me that when he was a bug, he was on a live horse every race, whether it be a 6/5 shot or a 22-1. All the trainers knew that he was a hot commodity, given the weight break and his talent.
In my eyes, he is the best jockey in the world. A few bonehead moves here and there, yea. Feel free to disagree. I'm sure the lines around the corner on this one.
