I knew Mike Smith when he was riding at Arlington Park.I told him one day what I thought of his ride.There were are lot of good ones,and a lot of bad ones.Hall of Fame jockey,ummm,let me think about that one.

Steve,

D. Wayne Lukas is a hall of fame trainer. I just can't include him either.

I left Mike Smith out on personal prejudice and it cost me. I get burnt once and I remember. I woud have had Tiago if Mike wasn't up.
I'm sure he is a great guy and I don't have any real ill will towards him. If he was walking across the parking lot I would stop and let him buy.

btw

Today was a good day to be a Jon Court fan. Jon can never owe me money
