A solid colony.
Somebody does this every time the guys name comes up leaving me feeling like I missed the gaping holes in Mike Smith's career.
Hall of fame rider with over 4000 wins, has won a Derby, Preakness, about 10 Breeders Cup races and another 50 G1 stakes over 25 years.
A couple of eclipse awards, riding titles at all 3 NY meets seversl times.
I don't get it....did this guy have a Bill Buckner moment that I was sleeping for, Did he vote for McGovern?, give millions to Save OJ? or get caught throwing races.
It's kind of like an inside joke....this time it's Kev a couple of months ago Bogey had a "Are you Kidding me" comment when someone defended Smith.
Don't get me wrong I am not being critical of any who have posted a critical sentence about Smith I just don't get what the guy has done to be the Jeff George of jockey's!!!
