Best Value Jockeys in the Country
To qualify they must average at least 500 mounts a year for the last five years:
#1: Miguel Perez - $2.31 #2: Kerwin Clark - $2.09 #3: Joel Rosario - $1.99 #4: Paco Lopez - $1.97 #5t: Alan Garcia - $1.95 #5t: Leandro Goncalves - $1.95 #7: Alonso Quinonez - $1.94 #8: Huber Villa-Gomez - $1.90 #9: Jose Lezcano - $1.88 #10t: Erik Rodriguez - $1.87 #10t: Diego Saenz - $1.87 Everyone else is below $1.82 - a ton of guys are in that $1.60 to $1.75 range. As for the worst ... Phil Teator's $1.09 edges out Inosencio Diego's $1.12 - but .. considering that Diego somehow achieved his $1.12 with over 4,000 total mounts .. he probably deserves the title of worst value in the land.

Kerwin Clark shows a gigantic profit at Evangeline like every single year and he's been there for a long time.
How old is that guy? He rode Dispersal a couple of times. He's got to be a senior citizen.

Complete waste of talent I guess. Only made one half hearted attempt to make it at a major circuit .. went 2-for-20 in Southern Cal and left. In 2004, he rode 592 races - 14% wins - $2.65 ROI - the vast majority of these numbers compiled in Northern California at Golden Gate and Bay Meadows. Eventually left No. Cal for New Mexico. Zia Park: 2009: 22-for-112 ($2.42 ROI) 2008: 36-for-176 ($2.55 ROI) 2007: 19-for-80 ($4.22 ROI) Sunland Park: Profitable four of the five years he's ridden there He moved his tack to Emerald Downs this year for some reason ... At Emerald: 16-for-90 $3.43 ROI Not counted in any of these stats - In 2007, he won 40 of 172 quarter horse races - and had a $2.64 ROI

Some guys like smaller tracks, less scrutiny, not unlike people who can't play sports in NY.

Going into 2008 - he was finishing in the top 3 with 45% of his mounts and his average odds at post time were 16/1 - and this from a sample of over 1,000 races. You're lucky if you see Rosario at 16/1 twice a week anymore ... and when you do, the horse probably is going to have the look of a 25/1 shot or more on paper.

I'm pretty sure there are a lot of posters here who would say all these numbers are completely irrelevant.
