It's interesting you say that. I remember him starting out absolutely horrendously last winter and being shocked at what a poor rider he was. I noticed that every horse he rode, speed or no speed, he was pumping away out of the gate. I even asked another rider if this sort of style was at all productive ( not even mentioning specifically who I was talking about ).

Then, suddenly, he started winning. Then Jara and Kiaran seemed to split when Jara got a new agent ( I wonder why ) and suddenly he was the new flavor of the month.

He'll be gone in a couple of years......and a new thorn in my side will emerge.
