Anyone know if he's still riding? Is he still a bug? Where is he riding these days?

He took a drop in class and is now riding at the thorne. At the rate he's going he'll be at Portland Meadows next winter.

He was stinking up the joint at Oaklawn, now he's riding at
Hawthorne. The kid is better than his record shows this year,
hopefully the move to Haw. will ignite his career

For the update on Toups. I thought he was on the way to a great career, very promising last year in KY if i recall. Hope he finds his old form, maybe he'll show back up for Keeneland.

Toups is kind of big. I would liken him to Eddie Martin. Great kid though, really super to talk to, and a strong rider. He just needs someone else handling that book, losing the bug never helps, but hes a much better rider than the record indicates right now
