It is all about the horse. Who knows you might get a guy replacing Nak riding for a trainer for the first time. You would think the jock would do anything he could to start riding for Oneill or Dollasce etc. Plus I also think that you might get better odds on the horse if say Matt Garcia was on instead of Nak. I think BTW says it all the time, the jock is not as important as alot of people make them out to be.
