I will let Pat Day's record speak for itself.

Pat Day was no more skilled than many other riders of his time...he was fortunate to be fed excellent mounts and have the right connections. He really wasnt that "great" a rider.

If you say so. But I guess 9 TC winners (and the only jock to win the Preakness 3 straight times). He also won the Canadian Triple Crown. And he holds the all time record for Breeders Cup wins with 12. I guess that is pretty much luck

Listen...I am not saying he was a horrible jock. He had a long career...so of course he was going to get the wins. But he wasn't one of the greats....McCarron..Eddie D....Pincay...Cordero...Stevens......they were the great ones from his time....I am probably forgetting a few....Day was nowhere near the jockey those guys were...

Thank god that night when he was all whacked out on heroin in a hotel room that god magically appeared from his tv and told him to straighten out his life....who knows what dumpster he would be residing in today calling home

Yeah--too bad Antley didnt have God pop out of his tv like Day. But Day did more on the track than Stevens, McCarron, Eddie D and Cordero did. I would say that Pincay is the top dog. Personal preference is all.

Make your case as to why McCarron and Cordero are better. Change my mind. I am totally open to your logic. Go ahead and convince me.

Speaking of excellent Pat Day mounts, Easy Goer was one of my favorite horses of all time... Easy Goer and Sunday Silence got me into watching horseracing as a kid. Silver Charm started the actual addiction.
