As a grown adult, he had a choice. The choice he made failed him. Too bad, he was a brilliant rider and probably a decent day trader. He should have chosen to leave a better legacy for his kid.

Sometimes it's not just as clear as that. Let's award him for his accomplishments as a jockey not degrade him for his off track troubles.
