Lets thank the jocks!
 

Okay, if you could pay homage to one jock..... NOT the best, NOT your favorite..... if you could complement one on a fine ride or if there's one who was riding when you made that big score?

Who would you thank (besides Maylan) and what would you say?

Anyone?

Lets all play nice in the sandbox, kids, and remember those who have the only job in the world (I think) where an ambulance follows them around all day.

Diane Nelson

Great!

And you're thanking her because..... (?)

Studart.

She has a great ass

Willie Carson

I can't wait for Kev to ask who he is
:D

Aaaaah, very good Sir.

A fine reason to pay homage.

whoever won on Kickin...


do jockey's deserve thanks when they do their job correctly? Or do they only deserve to get crap when they screw things up.

Is he still alive? lol

He was when he won at Ascot for me in 1994. Four horse accumalater bet that is called a Super Yankee!!! It paid $10,000 for a $10 bet
:tro:

THIS is what I'm looking for. Thanks for answering the question. :)

My take on jocks is something like this.

You know how they geld unruly male horses to get them to behave better?

I think when a jock has lost his third race that he should have won, as a result of trying to use their brain, they should be lobotomized.

Until they start lobotomizing jocks, I just don't see any discussion of praising jockeys as having any merit.

I was a little worried about being called a redboarder from so long ago
:D

I figured for every 10,000 negative posts there could be a nice one though. :p

Personally I'd like to break with tradition and not include my favorite substance abusers (bless them all), hell I'm not even including the one and only Freddy Fong (who IS riding at TP these days and winning occassionally :eek: :tro: ).

I'd like to thank The Mig for his ride on Desert Code. :)

:D

No worries!:)

Joel Rosario for his ride on Obrigado.

Fair enough! I will give legitimate thanks in my next post!

Thank you to all jocks that retire.

That was very sweet. :D

What other reason would there be?
