Enjoy it now....I'll wait for the other 95 days of the meet before declaring victory. This is as close as you're going to be, so soak it up.
Actually just catching up on the first three days and I happen to see her not doing anything.

You just HAD to mention her winning the jock title last year at Hawthorne in the AP Live blog didn't you

Can't give my boy Thorton his props singlely

Of course I did, they went at it through both meets at Hawthorne. She won one and he won one, would you expect anything less? C'mon, you know that the "Inez" tag on my blog is going to be one of the most used tags all season long.

Hey, for not having a winner, she's something like sixth in earnings. She'll get in her groove just like she did last year.

Stop it with the avatar.

You are greatly underestimating the power of the 'bug'. Brandon Meier has absolutely zero chance of being a jockey after he loses it, both because he is brutal and because he is going to have weight issues.

I am guessing she will be 0 for 35 by Saturday and probably get one on me Saturday

Brandon Meier is going to have zero chance of being a jockey because not only the weight issues, but because he's just flat out not very good. I've never said Inez is a world-beater, but she's an infinitely more naturally gifted rider than BMeier could ever be.

So that's something in her corner. She'll find her groove. She found it with crap horses last year when she started to get good. She didn't need the bug, it wasn't getting her any good horses until the end of the meet any way. Her streak about 8 weeks into the meet started on BAD horses that she used to get. It'll all even out.
