Gander,do you often feel like a jockey doesn't want a horse to win nearly as much as you want the horse to win? There is a huge difference here.If a horse you bet doesn't get it done,then you lose money that you had to put up.Jockeys just don't make money that race (if they don't win.)They simply move on to the next opportunity(while you're looking to see what the damage is.)Stakes races are different,but in your typical race,I think the fans want it a little more than the jocks do.That's why the jocks aren't nearly as upset as the fans are (when horses lose.)
