Other than getting horses out of the gate quicker and saving horse for the end of a race, I can't explain it very well. I'm not a jockey, I just bet on the races they ride in. He obviously spent most of his time at very speed-favoring tracks, but he was also more successful at it than just about anyone else. I do remember him winning his share of big races outside of California as well. The guy won 7 BC races from 53 mounts for cripes sake.
