Chris A was the wifeys Favorite Jockey after his Derby win. She was really upset when it all went down and it still bothers her still today. I remember him riding a Horse that Dogwood Stable owned that paid $25 bucks to win. I was just getting started into racing and I had $20 to win on him. I wish he was still around not for me but for them kids he left behind. My friend was killed in a boating accident when he won 2/3 of the Triple. In that same year me and wife lost our baby in the 6th month of Pregancy one tough year when he died. It still brings back bad times for me. RIP my baby Cassidy Nichole Steen, my buddy Charles Jefferson Graves and Chris Antly.
