I think part of the reason we see less of the front end thefts are jockies of today are not of the same quality we have had in years gone past, Gary Stevens was just about the best rider at doing this, you could always adjust your handicapping accordingly if you foresaw a paceless race with him in a race. You see what some would term as top riders riding at SA right now and you are quickly reminded just how great a rider he truly was.
