Did something happen to Calvin Borel today?

Latest word was that he was going to go to Arlington. Dennis Cooper was going to handle his book but Jara was delayed in Panama due to the birth of his child. He was originally supposed to arrive for the opening of the meet, but he stayed in Panama for the delivery. Cooper had said he spoke with Jara after the meet began and Jara said he was still coming. I don't think he's arrived yet.

Cooper has a bit of a greater sense of urgency to get him there now unfortunately

I did see this in a Euro race and I cant find it.
So strangely enough I looked up Horse racing oddities
on U-Tube and guess what is second on the list:

Calvin B. and Chuck S. should remember this one well...

William Antongiorgy (did I spell that right?) won his first race at Hollywood Park after he lost his irons. He even stayed in a crouch. Is riding regularly up north (Bay area) these days.

I don't think GBBob wants to see that again.
