1-Julie Krone,we will never know how great she could of been but nobody could get a horse to relax like she did.
2-Angel Cordero Jr.-People disliked him for being too aggressive.I say Poppycock to that.The greatest ride ever in my opinion is the one he gave Bold Forbes in the Belmont.Riders today would have grabbed leather with him and the horse would have finished up the track.Cordero knew the further they go the more they hang. 3-Braulio Baeza-Ice water in his veins and a master at pace. |

I would include Braulio Baeza & Angel Cordero Jr. on my short list of great jocks.
Anybody remember Robyn C Smith...she might have been one of the best looking..and she got a few mounts from AG Vanderbilt.. Last edited by Payson Dave : 03-07-2007 at 11:25 AM. |

1973 North Sea (4) 117 1:33 3/5 Alfred G. Vanderbilt Robert P. Lake Robyn C. Smith I think she was the first female jockey to win a major race in the US... She use to rent a house in my neighborhood for the Saratoga Meets in the early 70's Other August residents that rented in that same neighborhood included Mack Miller, Braulio Baeza, & Leroy Jolley. Obviously she does not belong on a list of top jockeys ever... Last edited by Payson Dave : 03-07-2007 at 02:54 PM. |
