Leparoux is an outstanding young rider who hopefully learned some valuable lessons at Saratoga. His laissez-faire style got him in more than his share of jackpots as the meet progressed and the big boys were not inclined to make his life easy. He's certainly the best apprentice I have seen in some time and will be very surprised if in time he isn't truly on of the top riders in the country. He, however, needs to learn to be more aggressive and fight for what is rightfully his. He most likely will.

I personally think julien is a good jock and better than the average apprentice, but he is being compaired to the greats and those guys were really just kids 16 not 23 he has 7 more years of experiance being around horses and patience has alot to due with how young riders due. I would take McCarron, Desormeax, Cauthen any of those guys when they were 23 over JULIEN anyday.

Lenny Goodman was one of my closest friends. He thought Steve was as good a rider as he ever had. Not a bad compliment from a guy that had Ussery and Braulio.

Anyone know the oldest jock to win the eclipse award? Just curious
