I must say watching Garcia day in and day out, he is right now the best grass jockey in the country. Not even close.

Couldnt agree more. His ride on Tahoe Warrior today was phenominal. Any other rider, and I chalk it up as a loss when he was dropping back and losing ground to the stalkers. Saved enough gas in the tank to re-rally for the win.

Garcia has gotten very, very good on the grass but Leparoux came back in the 9th with a pretty flawless ride of his own.

There is no way to name a best... Ramon, Kent, Maragh, Julian and Garcia are all very very good. This is a great colony.
