I actually had one of the jockeys, Anthony Stephen, give me and my girlfriend sealed up chapstick, with a picture of himself and his riding accomplishments on it. Strawberry vanilla flavored.

If you can fit your riding accomplishments onto a thing of chapstick, you still have a ways to go...but he, like most jockeys, is very friendly and very nice to people at the track.

With a hockey player, Gamesmanship is a much better quality than sportsmanship, in my opinion.
