hello doc. in answer to some of your questions--the horse that i thought had the most heart was the great Kelso. no matter what conditions or how much weight they put on him[which you know went up to 150 lbs. back then], he found his way to the winners circle. the 2 jockeys that i thought had the most heart were manny ycaza & angel cordero jr. they were not afraid to squeeze through any holes or sometimes[may times] make their own. i have many other opinions, but do not want to take up too much space. steve
