Ok Playa thats why he got SO MANY votes for the eclipse, everyone had it wrong/
Look there was a year or two when Jerry won teh eclipse on the basis of how much money he won riding a couple big horses where other guys had a better overall year. Thats how it works and you know it. The guy who wins the money gets the crown. Its a standard that is used in the industry. Jerry is an announcer now, and I have no idea why he is brought up by you in every discussion about jockeys who ride NOW!!!!!!
Gomez just sent patrons running to the bathroom to vomit with his 1-21 skid this weekend at Belmont.
