Both are pretty bad at times...other times, I think they ride quite well. Chantel's move in that race where she jumped off the horse was pure idiotic though.

I have a question...

Are you all going to diss me this bad when I become a jockey? LOL.

That depends on whether you are going to become a spoiled, whining, primadonna who expects everyone else to pay for your insurance.

I expect to win enough to pay for my own insurance, and, if I'm not near the rider that everyone else thinks that I can be, then I'll quit and go to vet school (which I plan on doing anyway after I've ridden for 5-10 years).

I just want to be around the horses for awhile. It's what I love to do, and my heart is sick from not being able to ride.

I don't like whining, spoiled, primadonnas who expect others to pay for their own insurance. I suggest you look up the definition of INDEPENDANT CONTRACTOR and then compare that to what the jockey's guild is trying to extort from the industry. Perhaps then you will understand my ire.

I don't respect anyone who empowers totally unqualified clowns to represent them, then choose to blame everyone else except themselves when their leadership they so passionately endorsed is exposed as totally fraudulent.

Your post and a bunch of others on this thread must be the result of a poor ride or a better ride that beat you.

Recent rider recipients of your ire and others include Smith, Sutherland, Garcia, Bridgmohan, Dominguez, Lopez, etc, etc....

Fact is take any of these riders and put them on a lesser circuit and they are top 5 jocks or better. Conversely, take Emigh out of Chicago or Cruz out of So Florida and put them at Aqueduct and see if they can even make the top 15. They won't.

More to the point, see how they LOOK riding a bunch of second and third tier horses. They'll look awful. Good horses make riders look good.

I remember being six years old at the racetrack and hearing people blame losses on jockeys. I didn't understand it then, I still don't.
