You also have to realize is that they guy is still winning races when he doesn't have his bug(stakes races). Garcia is not.
All I've said is that I believe Garcia has the potential to be the best out of the young crop of riders. Many trainers on the west coast are singing this young man's praises and deservedly so.

I agree that Leparoux is outstanding and Jara has been lights out in the big races. But to disregard Garcia as nothing more than a 3% winner if he moves to New York is absolutely absurd considering he finished 1st at Golden Gate defeating Russell Baze, 3rd at the Hollywood meet and is currently in 3rd at the Del Mar meet.

And now I am asking you to please not take it easy on me. I want your brilliance and knowledge of the game to shine through not just post count, but actual opinion. Trying to throw around board status is lame.
