1,000 career victories today! A milestone I've had in my sights for some time. Just want to thank every trainer, owner, and agent that I have worked with to help me achieve this. Last but certainly not least I want to thank every horse that has carried me to each one of these.

Giving this mare a good home and happy retirement makes me so happy. Gratzie was so good to me on the track and she deserves a happy retirement.

13 time winner GRATZIE, now a 10-year-old mare, has been retired from racing and adopted by her jockey “Billy the Kid” @Jockeybant ! Gratzie arrived at Billy & his mom’s farm in North Carolina on Tuesday. Thanks to Billy, trainer Manny Badilla & owners Ron Charles & Sam Gordon!

The Hisa whip rule is good for the bad and inexperienced jocks because they overuse the whip. It’s bad for the more experienced jocks because they know when and when not to use it. The whip is overrated in the first place but the rule does tie your hands for when you do need it.

It should be left to the stewards wether you are abusing the whip or using it for good. That’s just my expert take on it…..🧐😂
