Its been a really great meet so far at Tampa Bay Downs.  The weather is finally cooperating by getting warmer.  I've won 4 Stakes races, 30 Turf races and 73 wins total for the meet as of yesterday.  There's still another month and a half to go and then I will be headed up north to ride around the east coast. (Delaware, Pimlico, Laurel, Colonial, Philiadelphia Park and Penn National)  I will also be traveling to other states to ride in some stakes.  So far the end of the Keenland meet I will go up to ride Cloudy's Knight in a turf stake.  I am really happy with the way my career has been going.  I have a great agent, Tommy(Oger) Owen who's very supportive and works very hard trying to get me on the best horses.  We make a great team.  We are both looking forward to having a great summer.  I have had the opportunity to meet and ride for some trainers that I had never ridden for before.  Such as, Eric Reed, George(Rusty) Arnold, Christopher Clement, Bill Mott, Gerry Carwood, Dale Bennett and David Vivian.  I would like to really thank all the owners and trainers that have ridden me thru out the years and continue to be loyal to me.  They have made my career what it is today by giving me the opportunity to ride and win for them.  This is a very special profession because of all the people I get to meet, all the places I get to travel to and all the beautiful and talented horses I get to ride on a daily basis.  I am very blessed and grateful and thank God everyday for giving me this talent.  See you at the races!
