Funny.. Grening tracks Cigar jock switches
http://www.drf.com/news/article/100147.html
"There will be a number of jockey switches for the Cigar Mile. Garrett Gomez will ride Arson Squad, who won the Meadowlands Cup in his last start under Edgar Prado. Prado will be riding Tale of Ekati, who won the Jerome Handicap in his last start under Cornelio Velasquez because Prado was out of town. Velasquez is riding the unbeaten 3-year-old Storm Play, who won the Best of Luck Stakes in his last start under John Velazquez. Velazquez is riding Wanderin Boy, becoming the ninth different pilot that the $1.2 million earner has had in his career.
Alan Garcia, who rode Wanderin Boy to a second-place finish behind Curlin in the Jockey Club Gold Cup, is riding Visionaire, whom he rode to victory in the Grade 1 King's Bishop in August. Rajiv Maragh replaces Garcia aboard Bribon, whom Garcia rode to victory in an allowance race last out. For those who like stability, Eibar Coa will ride Harlem Rocker for the eighth straight time."
