The world's all-time "winningest" jockey has just announced his retirement. Thought it worthy of mention. :)

Not sure if Kent Desormeaux will be riding Exaggerator in the Belmont on Saturday, seeing as he checked into rehab clinic in Utah overnight for alcohol abuse treatment.
"It is time to take a sober...
Why? I'm guessing that you say that because maybe Nyquist shouldn't have been battling up front for the entire race -- that he should have been dropped off the pace until later?
This is just a...
Well, that didn't work out too good, 'king hell.
Have gone for Abiding Star E/W at 50/1 as my only bet tonight. Purely on breeding.
Abiding Star is certainly below the standard of class expected for a race such as the Preakness -- doing most of...
Outstanding stuff, IS !
A nice draw for Nyquist; an anyway decent break will see him in a healthy racing position. Doug O'Neill seems happy enough with it anyway.
Dunno if Todd Pletcher will feel the same regarding...
Add the Iroquois to that Ed, particularly the 11th fence where he veered alarmingly to the right and never regained the lead afterwards.
Judge for yourself -- the National Steeplechase Association...
Second Iroquois in a row for Jack Doyle on Rawnaq (Demonstrative last year).
Preakness Stakes (2nd leg of the Triple Crown) next Saturday at Pimlico.
Nyquist at 1.80 across the board seems pretty high to me; I had him as a 1/2 shot -- maybe even 2/5. Fairly certain he...
Congratulations, SC. !
Lovely winner.
Outstanding !
Yes. Tho' he seems to just win all his races to date by small margins, you have to wonder now if he has more in the tank -- that maybe there's a reserve that could be used if needed.
His clock last...
I think that's a bit harsh on Desormeaux. Exaggerator had to be checked once or twice in the earlier stages due to traffic. Desormeaux then had to change whip hands at the turn into the final...
Well done, Wilson !
10 mins to the Off, looking at the American Tote I notice ..........
Exaggerator down to 5/1. I had him at 4/1 on my tissue (post #48). So Ladbrokes still holding at 8/1 is out of line. Will have a...
