Story on Borel

[jpops757]

I wonder why they stuck with Borel? This is not what generaly happens. After a colt shows some ability the conections start looking for some higher profile riders. My hat is off to the connections for standing pat with Borel. He has always been a producer. When Pat Dy left the LAD,Oaklawn and Arksarben circut. Borel ,Ardoin and a few others became premier riders there. After about five years the finally convinced Borel to move his tack to Ky . where he always performed well but always some young rider would come along and get all the praise. There are several similar jockeys out there and I hope this a trend with them getting the oppertunity for the big time. Foremost in my opinion is Jon Court,also a LAD ex.
