Kent will try to be slick when it isn't nessasary.

For timing I like John Velasquez. Especially near the pace.

Prado can time a race, a lot of times he is more likely to give an efficient race rather than try to steal a race with timing.

Nakatani is an aggressive jockey with timing.

Albarado does pretty well in some of these mid level stakes races.

I love Mario Pino on the grass in MD. I also like it when he gets up on a 2 yr old. At this point in his career, you know he isn't getting up on any babies that are crazy or that don't have a shot.
