how much do you think a winning jockey gets on average in a breeders cup race?

10 percent of the winners share of the purse and what ever wager the owners put in the jockeys boot.

It is a little cheezy if the jockeys are in fact complaining about this. Like Gryder or not, at least he's not the one doing the bitching.

What team does he own?

I know one of his great grand daddies owned a whole lot of US Steel.

His father wasn't an ass like this guy. Lived til he was in his 90's and won the US Open a bunch of times.

Dinny apparently just drinks and eats.

bessemer trust.

besides, couldn't all the jockeys stuff into a vw bug, and pitch in a buck a piece for parking?
then they could sell photos of them all in the car, and give the money to charity. there ya go, problem solved.

With the money most of them make they should be able to afford to pay for thier own parking and tickets. What a bunch of whining wenches.

Yes, Dinny Phipps has enough money to buy his own tickets. Yes, I agree.
