    Jockey Drayden Van Dyke gets 7 wins out of 8 mounts at Del Mar

    Incredible

    Only one other rider has ever done it

    Victor Espinoza back in 2006

    Mike Smith took him under his wings and he now gets the mounts that he would have when he was younger

    He's basically going to take Smith's mounts when he retires

    Lkid, have a question for u, seeing that you're on fire right now:

    * Is Van Dyke worth fading in coming days?

    People love to ride hot-streaks. Have to believe people will bet Van Dyke blindly this week.

    They bet him down the last 2 races today even though his last horse paid over 9 bucks

    Finding value on the other horses will be key if you're fading him

    Yeah, Range. That's what I figured.

    I have to figure True Gross on "hot jockeys" might be 0.50-cents on $1.00, when they get overbet.

    Simply speaking

    Pilots (jockeys) are only as good as their engineers (trainers) who in turn are equally reliant on their Manufacturers (owners)

    This game has a beautiful odor of

    emphatic loyalty

    It takes a perfect combination of trust

    It’s not like fantasy baseball who’s hot

    Monday Ill pick up Jose Ramirez

    He go 0-4

    Tuesday drop him and grab Giancarlo

    ...

    The planning that goes into this , turns Bobby Fisher’s chess board into a black and red plad shirt

    Checkers
    ___

    But in short no,

    Pacific Classic weekend is built up out there

    They dark mon & Tues

    And when they come back Wednesday

    I’m sure it’s a bunch of nonsense card

    Filled w/ 40k Claimers

    Prob don’t even have a 6 figure purse

    Only way I can answer that

    But great question

    Willing to engage / learn
