I very strongly disagree that Bailey is a better commentator.

I had forgot he rode some of them mentioned. Kind of hard to believe he didn't pick up a BC winner in there, but for most of his career it was limited to one day. 4,000+ wins on major circuits is not chopped liver, plus 160 million in purses. I seem to remember some injuries where he was out a long time.
