* The Finish Line



St. Trinians so called "perfect ride" concludes with her losing by a head.

In case anyone is wondering - Garcia's career win percentage in route races is 13% and his ROI is $1.61 - which means you lose 19.5% per dollar bet - which is more than the win takeout.

Fellow young rider Joel Rosario - who got the boot on St. Trinians - has ridden 1,820 route races in his career, he won 17% of them and his ROI is an absolutely mind-boggling $2.07. Which is a 3.5% profit per dollar bet. In synthetic route races - Rosario is 19% with a $2.31 ROI lifetime. An ROI that is borderline impossible for a jockey to achieve from over 700 career rides.
