How about if Mine that Bird wins the Preakness and Rachel doesn't run back in the Belmont. Would you consider riding Borel back in the Belmont or stick with the winning Preakness rider? Or try to really make a footnote in history and be the first TC winner with three different riders lol?

I'd think they would say F-Calvin and stick with the preakness winning jockey.

you just might be right, i don't think RA is a gimme. She has beaten only fillies has had it her way, and beat nobody by 20 lenghts la-tee-da, she can be beat by this group, so let's hear it.

if RA is this good , it shouldn't matter who riders her , i know steve talked about it earlier already , but surely if this is the greatest filly as people on here have said , any jock s/b to ride her and win next sat .... this thought came from my old bud -

as my old friend dixie porter used to say the horse makes the jock
