Default Congrats Martin Garcia
Gotta give this kid credit. Rode the PERFECT race. Looked like Shoemaker....Arcaro.....out there. I am sure we will see a lot more of him in the future winning Grade I's. Congrats to Martin and Jim Peagram for finally getting this horse home and the win he deserved in one of the biggest races of 2010.

Rather hilarious seeing Go Go on that hopeless horse just trying to keep him on the track as Garcia rides Gomez's former horse to victory in a triple crown race. Wonder how Ron Anderson feels right now ?

Only way Garcia gets that mount was because of Peagram. He deserves credit as well.

They will see sucess in the year, but I bet they dont ride the Kentucky Derby favorite in the near future.

I have to disagree with that. The kid will be riding all of Baffert's first call's. And Baffert is the premier trainer of 3 yr olds each year. If he has a good horse in 2011 , Garcia will be on it.

LOL. Gomez is the best jock in the country, and he is going to have another year other jocks can only dream of. LAL will get beat somewhere and dont be surprised if Gomez is the one that beats him.

Are you the guy who takes all the pictures of the jockeys giving a thumbs up?

I would have to guess without the agent change there is no way Garcia is on that horse today. Garcia is obviously no dummy.

Best jock in country ? He wasn't even the best in So-Cal.

Not sure if he is top 3. Now that he isnt riding in So-Cal vs a below average colony he won't be getting all the best mounts. He is gonna have quite a battle this summer at MTH and Sar.

No. I think most of the jocks out there are borderline idiots.

Garcia sure made a shrewd business decision though. Didn't he just win the Lone Star Derby too?

Baffert tells you to take your book to Pegram (which if you didn't notice is the same name as the owner of one bafferts best clients) or you you cant ride these horses you're working for me in the AM. SHREWD!!!!!!!

Yeah. He is far from an idiot. He is in the small percentile that doesn't fall into the idiot category. By switching agents Garcia did the right thing. He now is riding for one of the premier trainers. Baffert ALWAYS has the best horses so Garcia will be set. Lone Star Derby...Preakness......kid is on a roll.
