The top jocks are local to Belmont. Wooley will have no problem getting a top jock to ride.

Going out on a limb here but I bet the Moss's and Shirreffs told Mike he is riding the horse at HP.

I have to get up off the floor from laughing so hard!!! Is he still at Mountaineer??

He's only ridden 14 so far this year .. they think he's Kenny Powers down there but he's just keeping himself fresh and primed for the big comeback.
