Being TG players we look at a number of factors when making our plays.  Do any of you factor the riders ability into your plays?  I find that at some tracks certain jockeys are over bet.  A couple that come to mind are Russell Baze at Golden Gate, Calvin Borel in Kentucky, and Rosie Napravik at the Fair Grounds.  I love seeing them on \"throw outs\" but they can kill your price in a hurry if they\'re on one of your plays.  Are there any jockeys that you\'ll avoid.  Channing Hill is one who I stay away from.  It\'s Monday and on a slow evening it\'s fun to chat about strategy.  Just curious what any of you think.  Good luck!

I use J.Alvarado right now at Saratoga, very under rated by most people.Also the Ortiz brothers get better every day.
