@urbanfireman: Somewhat of a Sad day today as Chantal hangs up her tack for good to pursue another career. Her last mount is for her father Crushin Hard. (@urbanfireman is her brother)

Did Chantal go to college?

While she is attractive (and I certainly admire how much she kicks butt in the gym),comparatively she is not exactly "special" when you consider the thousands of other women who dream of being actresses/models. Being a jockey set her apart.

She has been retired in a sense that while her mortal flesh has been on horseback in races...nothing else has.



Over 400 rides in the last 12 months and she's losing at 41.5% on every dollar bet on her. Triple the takeout.

She rode the winner that got me and NTAMM into the BCBC this year.
I will be forever grateful to her for the $7,500 I now have to squander at SA this year.

I have no problem betting bad jockeys on horses I otherwise like and still think offer great value.

In fact, the bad ones will sometimes luck into a dream trip just as often as the truly good ones will screw something up.
