Default why the switch of jockeys?

does anyone really beleive that the fault of stardom bound losing was mike smiths fault?
the horse has a one and only run
which mike again did like her preious races
but the horse came up short

how can this be mike smiths fault?
could it be possibly[if you looked at the horses 2 wins this year under new trainer frankel]that the horse either digressed as a 3 year old[which they sometimes do]
or wasnt really trained up to her capabilities [look at the way previous trainer trained her as compared to frankel]
i just think smith is getting a bum deal here getting replaced

true
hes getting replaced by the best jockey out there
but i thought winning 5 or 6 in a row and closing for a 3rd would keep you on a horse
i guess loyolty is lost in this sport
