This business never stops changing. When you think your plans are set one direction everything can change as fast as a 6 Furlongs sprint race.(in about a minute and change). I got an unexpected text message from Agent Steve Elzey about two weeks ago asking me to call him. I was thinking this must be a mistake. Steve is one of the best agents in the country. (His track record with getting his jocks the best mounts and bringing there careers to the top at any given race track.) I was flattered but not really sure why he wanted me to call him. Once I spoke to Steve, I was impressed by his demeanor and how he handled his business. I thought to myself this is the kind of agent I would like to have handle my book for the up coming Tampa Bay Downs meet. Steve suggested that I come and ride the mini meet at Churchill Downs before heading down to Tampa and I was all for it. I hadn't ridden at Churchill since 2003 when I rode Supah Blitz in the Kentucky Derby. I would be competing with the best riding Colony in the country. Also it was Breeders Cup week. I was excited, packed and moved within a week from DE to KY. It was a quick decision and a quick move but it has turned out to be a great transition. I have won 5 out of 18 starts here putting me fourth in the standings thus far. I am really excited with my fresh start with an established agent and know that he will bring out the best in my ability to become a better rider. I ride 6 races today at Churchill Downs. See you at the races!
