Default Santos and Funny Cide

Why the constant jockey changes with Funny Cide? Santos-Bailey-Prado-Mig-CV etc. Do the Yellow Bus Boys think it is the jockey's fault every time?
Why doesn't Tagg just put Santos back on the horse? He rode him to all of his big wins.

Cornelio is now Tagg's go to guy. He rides the two other stars in the barn (Showing Up and Nobiz Like Shobiz) and now he rides all three.

I thought Cornelio is now Mott's first call?

He was with Showing Up last weekend, not After Market. Tagg has arguably the best 2yr old in the country, and Cornelio rides him. That horse has KY Derby written all over him.

IMO, I feel that Corny is not the right
jockey for Funny Cide. The trip wasn't
good at all. IMO Mig or Santos. I will
never forgive them for putting Bailey
on him, sorry he just rubs me the
wrong way.

Cant fault Tagg & 'the crew' for putting Bailey on him. Even at that age Bailey was still better than most other available riders - probably all of them at that point.
