I've always believed that horses win races. Trainers and jockeys can only help them. However, I thought sometimes Garrett bent that rule. Not sure I saw a jockey ride so many good races. If he had a horse, he was going to be very tough. He made a lot of nice horses better. They ran for him and he helped them run better.
