I hope to heck he's ok. It seems that this year has been particularly unkind to the jockey colony. I sure hope we don't have another bad story in the works. I pray that he's ok.

Pretty much anybody in this great country that has earned millions in his career, can find a phone and notify his place of employment or agent if, "he's o.k. and it's not what most of us are thinking."
.

He knew how tenuous his licensing is, he would have found a way to notify somebody....anybody, if he was stuck in traffic, sick, flat tire, sleepy, doesn't feel like riding horses, whatever.

Agree... and was just saying.. "I hope it's not the case"... knowing it most likely is.

99.9% he's using again.

I don't have a problem with his drug use. You're just keeping talented riders off horses and we're left with the good boys like Jon Court and Mike Luzzi.

I'd rather have PVal on a 10 day bender.

Rick Hammerle on ATR: "Agent Tom Knust has heard from PVal. Not riding Friday. Expects to ride Saturday. Will do what has to w/ stewards."
