Mike Welsch ~ @DRFWelsch: According to Gulfstream officials jockey Paco Lopez's 60 racing days suspension has been reduced to 30 racing days. Under terms of the agreement Lopez must also donate $10,000 to the PDJF & serve volunteer hours at Jackson Memorial Hospital. He can resume riding on June 15.

I wish they didn’t reduce it but the donation and volunteer work is a nice touch. I hope this opens his eyes a little...but if he was still being reckless after what he did to Romero Maragh I’m not sure anything will. Unfortunate too, because horses seem to run for him.

He never seems to get the message though Hossy. There are guys that are aggressive, think an Eibar Coa, and then there's Lopez, who's totally reckless.

I agree. Ironic that you bring up Coa, considering it was Paco who ended his career.
