RM is one of the hardest working jocks out there. He's out on horses all morning most days. In fact, he's a bit of a throwback to the era of true "stable riders" when riders were contracted to one outfit. Unlike many riders, he's got some horsemanship skills and can get off a horse in the morning and really inform a trainer what the horse was doing and how he felt/went.
Because he's fairly tall Richie has always fought very hard against weight and it has taken a toll, but he's never given up. I've met him plenty and would never begrudge him a minute of success. Richie is all class.
