Yeah, but they also get paid on for riding the mounts that they don't win any money on. This isn't included in the 7% that I stated earlier, so they actually make quite a bit more than the horses actual earnings. I wonder how much money Jerry Bailey made the year that his horses earned 23,000,000? If you factor all these things in that everyone has stated in this thread, it would be very hard to come up with a number!
