Jockeys are all just easy to hate.
The best field of horses, from top-to-bottom, I've ever seen assembled for a race was the '98 Breeders Cup Classic. The "all-star" collection of jockeys riding in that race turned it into an absurd spectacle where no one was riding their own horse... and everyone was trying to ride someone elses horse.
If you didn't know what exactly was going on - you'd think all the riders near the front of the pack in that race had all lost their collective minds.
