One of the great segments on ATR. Pure emotion coming thru the satellite radio. Jockey colonies across the land could use more guys like the Mig.
Mig, I want you to know we had a horse race against one that you rode in the Lone Star Derby 2 years ago. Your horse was Leonides. Entering the top of the stretch, our horse was second and you were 3rd. By mid stretch a hole opened up and you hit it within a half second. It was such a cerebral move. It made the difference in you finishing 2nd and us 4th. You will leap this hurdle as you have always done in the past. Great luck with the surgery and your recovery!

Can't the racing gods cut this guy a break?!~ Jeez, what a bummer.
You're really a class act, Mig. Bailey says you're one of the best, and he should know. I hope the fates smile down on you sometime soon.

Mig was on ATR from 5:05-5:35 explaining the situation and taking calls including one from Tom Durkin. He wants to get healthy first and then evaluate, but talks like he fully expects to ride again.
Archives will be up in the next 30 min. (7:30 or so) HERE... 24/7 stream rolling HERE and will feature his visits at about 8:10p, 11:10p. 2:10a, etc.

They don't come any tougher than Richie. Imagine riding, in the winter no less, for two months with a broken neck. It's incredible.
This game is better for having Mig. And, my life is better for having him as a friend. It would be an understatement to say I wish him the best.
