Default Johnny V/Prado rides

ntra.com

-- With jockeys and their agents frantically trying to latch on to as many Breeders' Cup horses as possible, here is the present roster for Todd Pletcher's go-to rider, John Velazquez, who will have a mount in every race. Velazquez is confirmed on English Channel in the Turf, Henny Hughes in the Sprint, Honey Ryder in the Filly & Mare Turf, Pool Land in the Distaff, Scat Daddy in the Juvenile, Cotton Blossom in the Juvenile Fillies, Araafa in the Mile, and probably either Lawyer Ron or Flower Alley in the Classic.

-- Prado, in addition to Premium Tap, has secured mounts on Cacique in the Turf, Round Pond in the Distaff, Nightmare Affair in the Sprint, and King of the Roxy in the Juvenile.

Pisses me off that the connections of Nightmare Affair wouldn't let Sanchez stay aboard for his BC race, that is crap. Let him ride in other grade 1's but when it is the BC, pull him...BLAH

i had him w/p in the contest that day so i came out with the most money that day and of course i had him the same at the windows. again cajun most here really dont know whata hanger is, ive had the argument with some years back when they said ATSWHATIMTALKINBOUT hung in the derby LOL. the big boy was running best of all and barring a absolutely brutal ride by flores he probaly wins instead of funny cide but either way is no worse than 2nd. RIP ATS=(
