I cannot fault him for the ride, or any other ride on Invasor to this point.

These statements about how Jara did not have to step on the horse are perhaps why he continues to win, as he never takes all the horse has to offer, so he has yet to significantly bounce.

I totally agree, why take an all-out effort from a horse when you don't need to? He continues to win, and if it is not as impressively as the Sheiks want, sorry.

Winning is one thing, and if they want to win and look as good as possible, find another jockey...

Agree. One thing I like to see is a jock leave some gas in the tank. Many times winning by 10 when one length is fine ends up getting you beat next time.
Sounds like a big ego that wants to see his horse win by 25 lengths. It's unnesessary.
