Believe me,they didn't choose to ride a guy with 1 win at the meet(now 2.) Alex thought WILL is better.That being said,he still has to ride hard,and he is just not doing that.He gives up on this horse on the turn.He doesn't fight to keep the winner from coming over and taking his horse's path.Then he doesn't fight hard(at all) for 2nd(I think anybody else would have grinded out a 2nd here,but the guy is looking to quit and go back to the jock's room as soon as possible.)He and Flores are not getting it done.Mig could easy take these guy's horses if they don't start winning.Flores is a very odd rider.He is so hot n' cold that it is sick.He is so good when he is confident n' relaxed.He is actually one of the best riders in the World when he is in that zone.Too often,he is in this bad zone here(where he keeps getting 2nds,and breaks horses horribly..like in the last race last night.)I hope they both start riding a lot better.Chatlos better hope Flores does,because he relys on that guy a lot with big mounts.Ever since he got that favorite from Europe(Frank Lyons picked him out n' that IEAE or whatever they call them,owns him) stuck behind horses,he got defensive that day,and hasn't been relaxed for the last couple weeks.He has some good mounts today,and I hope he starts riding much better.He certainly has a ton of talent.
