He has a better chance of immortality riding her then he does riding MTB. There is a chance that (especially if she comes back at 4) she will be reguarded as one of the great ones of all time. As opposed to staying on MTB for the Preakness, finishing up the track and then being remembered as the jockey who gave the best ride to the worst horse ever to win the derby.
Does anyone really think this horse has any type of chance of winning the Triple Crown? Obviously my vote is for him to stay with the filly.
