Woodbine (ON) handled over $18 million (US $) for what developed into a special 3-day weekend of racing with the King's Plate doing more than $8 million for its altered Friday card.

Jose Lezcano, John Velasquez and Irad Ortiz, Jr. will all serve suspensions this week for earlier infractions. They will not ride Wednesday anywhere. Johnny V. and Lezcano will not ride through Friday.
Add Jackie Davis for one day but I don't recall when that will be served.

good. especially lezcano and irad. they haven't been riding that well for quite some time now. they've both costed me frim cashing in some decent exactas the past few weeks. even when irad wins there's something about the way he's riding on those mounts that appears a bit off.

Get this: Brian Hernandez is suspended (to be served Labor Day) for his ride on Thorpedo Anna in the Travers. He used the whip one time more than what is allowed. imagine if she won the race, the fallout! .
It would have been the Vino Rosso Wood Memorial (Johnny V. vs. Alvarado) multiplied exponentially.

or going back in time to watch jorge chavez chopping, slashing and hammering horses down the stretch 40-50 times? some would petition punishment via firing squad. antley or smith would be next on deck.

Flavien Prat was named Jockey of the Week in part for three Grade I wins. He could be in the driver's seat for Eclipse Award's jockey of the year. Still some time to go.

Shaun Bridgmohan is unofficially 3-for-4 at this Saratoga meet. He seems to be riding mostly for Melanie Giddings and he has additional mounts with her this week.

I am not sure if he is the Luis Tiant of jockeys, but I would have wagered a nifty sum he is older than his listed age of 45.
nah 45 sounds about right. part of that young jockey group from the 2000's. cornelio velasquez alan garcia, & eibar coa

Fun fact about Cornelio Velasquez. The last time he rode in the States was the July 4 holiday card when Tyler Gaffalione tied the one-day win record at Gulfstream with seven (2017). I don't know if Cornelio retired, went elsewhere or something else but he never rode in the US again.
