Last Race and Jockeys

[TEJASKIDD]

You hear this all the time at the track
"Top jockey sticking around for the last race of the day"
Even the sharpest guys say it.

Jockeys,their agents and trainers have no idea which race is going to be carded as the last race of the day. Entries are taken and then closed, then the racing secretary decides which races will go where. The condition book doesnt specify which race will be where on the card. It is a matter of field size and/or surface. Bigger fields get put on the end of the card for Pick 6/Pick 4 reasons. The feature race is usually the 2nd to last race. Turf races are not carded back to back. And so on.
However, if the field is large and it's a maiden claiming race, then it is more than likely to be carded as the final race, but I dont think you'll ever hear a jocks agent tell a trainer that his jock doesnt want to ride your horse because there may be a chance it's carded as the last race and Garrett,Rafael,or Laffit don't want to stick around to ride it. They are top riders that will not ride bottom level maiden claimers or bottom level anything but Im pretty sure position on the days card is not a factor.

Good point Dennis;

Since it’s a Monday lets check it out a little. Picked some guys at random who ride a bunch and will compare them overall / with the last race of the day. (Last two years / all tracks)

• Just the last race and probably the category most are interested in; when they “stick around” for that maiden claimer. (Same stats and plus-minus)

Conclusions: Heck if I know; I have a hunch Ken won’t be adding a “last race” filter into the Robot anytime soon; but if anyone is benefiting from this angle…bless you and as Tommy C likes to say; ‘Keep firing!

[Bob]

Dan,

You are amazing! How do you do this? Heck, on second thought, I don't care just keep doing it!

New angle...

ALAN GARCIA in the last race baby!

(Only if he is wearing pretty colors! )

There you go Bob / it’s Garcia for the toll money in the 9th!

The one I did a double take on was Russell Baze with only 8 winners over 7-1 in 2 years!!!

[TEJASKIDD]

That Baze stat is amazing.
With it being Monday and all, what is Baze's winning % on runners over 7-1?
I wish I was his agent. Get to handicap the race and pick which one to ride before entries. I'm sure Ray Harris has done a lot of spinning trainers in his career. About 5 trainers per race, 8 races per day, 200 plus days a year for over 20 years. 160,000+ spins.
He has run every decent rider out of town, or they've run themselves out of town by getting DUI's, jumping off bridges(I dont mean betting a lot to show), or just moving south.

[jbshoulda]

Jumping or "Planted with cement shoes"

[DanG]

With it being Monday and all, what is Baze's winning % on runners over 7-1?

I’ll run the 6 odds ranges I already have set up and use. For exactly “7-1” that’s a custom job and I’ll have to start charging.

Odds ranges are set up as % of all horses that run; or (% 10-20-20-20-20-10 %) trying to separate the two extremes.

The ranges come out to…

1. <2-1
2. <4.3
3. <8.2
4. <16.4
5. <43.2
6. >=43.2

Benchmark; (All riders etc by the odds ranges above)

I might as well run it on the same list of riders; (Same deal; 2 year all burger)

BTW: 55% of Russell “The Muscle’s” rides are less then 2-1…that is REMARKABLE!!!

So it's not the fact that he doesnt win on many longshots. He just doesnt ride any longshots.
Amazing that over 87% of the time his odds are less than 4.3-1
Of course, he is riding in mostly 6 horse fields and he does get 1st call on most of them.

True; and I wouldn’t be surprised if several of his few bombers were out of town.

Once he wanders away from No Cal, he either gets no respect or few good mounts (or both).

If any of you are wondering why R Baze didnt leave the state much during his career.
Here is the answer. I know his agent personally so I can tell you why.
They always believed that riding a full card locally was better than leaving the state to ride a single stakes race elsewhere.
4 or 5 Winners at BM/GG would be better for business than 1 win elsewhere.
Cant argue with that.

3 mounts of 21,000 at >=32/1 !!
Some riders can surpass that total by midcard on a given day
Nice stat Ron
I wonder if any rider elsewhere could even come close to those numbers
Speaks to absolute total domination and probably a rock solid job by the agent

I don't have any of my old research but I did a lot of work on Jockeys years ago, in an effort to provide a more meaningful rating than gross win percentage. For instance, if #1 PSR horses win 31% of the time and a jockey typically gets #1 PSR horses, they SHOULD have a higher win percentage - as Jerry Bailey typically did. But what about jockeys that typically get really low ranked horses with low win expectations and who outperform those probabilities, sometimes considerably.

To make a long story short, pretty much every category I looked at, where the sample size was over 100, one jockey always sorted to the top, like oil on water. It got to be a running joke. Who was it? Russell Baze. And quite a few low win percentage jockeys rode better than their probabilities, given the poor horses they were on. These were not reflected in gross win percentages.

Dennis---
You know what would be kinda cool...?? How about we set up a thread called Ask the Owner. It's mis-information like your thread starter that I am sure many of us would love to have someone to ask of. I know Mayo (previously owned horses) and others probably could help out in answering some of the questions! Your thoughts?

[TEJASKIDD]

Donnie,
Sorry I didnt respond sooner.
Maybe the thread should be ask the Ex owner. I am out of the game for good.
Too tough to make it work with bottom level claimers.
I think the best way to do it is buying shares into a group of higher valued runners.
It cost the same amount to train and feed and vet a 5000 claimer as it does a Breeders Cup runner.
If anyone has a question, Id be sure to answer to the best of my knowledge
