Hahahaha I just came back to say that, mindreader.

Look Mr. Ernie Sir i refuse to be spoonfed by some committee because in any given year someone got the most votes.

It's like the Eclipse awards or any awards. Take it for what it is and no more.

kent is an icon but idk about legend? even though he holds a record for most wins in a year. dominated the maryland, southern california and east coast circuits. winner of 3 kentucky derbies and 3 breeders cups. he's had a great career but he's at the twilight of his career though. won 3 eclipse awards including 2 for outstanding jockey (1989 and 1992) and one for outstanding apprentice (1986 or 87 i believe)
