Older Comments about Jockey Joel Rosario...

Weekend's travel itinerary has him leaving Gulfstream, flying to Santa Anita, catches a 3YO mount in the San Vicente, Kobe's Back, on Sunday, then flies to Arkansas, to ride Strong Mondate, in the Southwest Stakes, on Monday. Looks like he's shopping for a live mount for the Derby.

Wondering about his return and regaining the edge and mounts he had. Personally I think he needs a little humbling.

when is he coming back?

Sullivan · Smith.... · 4411 days ago

Leading rider Joel Rosario will be out of action for 6 weeks following the spill he took yesterday which resulted in a broken left foot. Jose Lezcano has picked up the mount on Orb for the G1 Travers, and Mike Smith has the call for My Happy Face in the G1 Test.

Is he hurt or something? It appears that he's been taken off at least 2 of his mounts at Arlington today, and his Leger horse Dark Cove is scratched.

The interview with him was disturbing as he appears to be struggling both emotionally and physically. Sad...

goblin · rf0321, You're referring to the Ramon Dominguez interview? · 4421 days ago
travel_vic · Took a lot to keep Laffit from giving it a go on a return until a neurologist told him how easily he could be paralyzed from that former neck fracture...MUST be damned hard to do, particularly when you are a prodigy like BOTH of these fellows were. · 4421 days ago

Anyone miss Dominguez ??

travel_vic · can you imaginr th black eye racing would get for one of tis stars to die when it was preventable? · 4421 days ago
goblin · Yes, and I think Ramon himself is struggling with his feelings vs. the facts; but he seems to grasp the reality of his situation. · 4421 days ago

Joel Rosario has been handed a 7-day suspension for his ride aboard Who's in Town in yesterday's bumpy rendition of the Adirondack Stakes. The suspension will be reduced to 3-days if Rosario does not appeal. The decision to appeal is still pending.

Floridaf · LOL It's okay, tmallios. Venting definitely helps. I have yet to meet Rosario, but he has to be doing something right (understatement of the year, I know), and I highly doubt anyone in his position would try to sabotage themselves, even to keep winning. It would take a really malicious person to deliberately cause the kind of bumping and interference that went on in the Adirondak, interference that easily could have cost up to 6 lives at that point in the race. Deliberate? No. Reckless? In my opinion, yes. · 4421 days ago
tmallios1 · florida,then on this issue.Let us just say that we both agree to disagree.have a good one. · 4421 days ago

If it wasn't Rosario he would have gotten more days and deservingly so. He is lucky that all three horses did not go down.

kaitlinefree1 · we're lucky this wasn't an ever bigger disaster than what it already was. · 4422 days ago
sosotricksy · Jockeys are put on the horses to keep them moving, and to point the animals head in the direction with the hope and trust the horse has enough training to respond appropriatly. they can not physically make them do any thing. I think you have it ecactly backward 90 % horse 10% rider. · 4422 days ago

In your opinion, who are the Top 5 jockeys in North America (ranked)? Why is your top rated jockey listed #1, and why is he/she better than every other jockey, IYO?

Jay S. · No doubt CFC. If I had to list a Top 5 when the money is on the line, I guess it would be: 1. Johnny V. 2. Garrett Gomez. 3. Calvin Borel. 4. Jesus Castenon. 5. Corey Nak. · 4508 days ago
zxswordxz · @Buckpasser - I feel the same way. I think Joel made a mistake and Johnny V would have make the difference. I was screaming at the TV, go to the outside, go to the outside, everyone was look at me like I'm crazy. I watch all of Orb races and I knew the horse like to be on the outside. Did you notice that Orb started to fire when Joel position him to the center of the track at the end of the race? · 4507 days ago

Premptive move in Gulfstream Park Turf Handicap, loss. Premptive move on Orb in Preakness Stakes, loss. I didn't have $ on Orb, but I am not ready to preach Rosiarianity.

Cocoa · I'm ahead $400, scored big today, Calumet got the win and Mylute ran admirably. I am happy. · 4509 days ago
rafirox · You just said he had cold feet in big competitions, than you make exceptions for all FIVE (can you count?). He's a better rider than anyone in the country at this moment. More fraud on the next comment. · 4509 days ago

he is just amazing. definitely the best jockey right now.

Southern.Humor · He has horse sense. Yes he got a bit enthusiastic with the whip today - but in that position, with all the adrenaline rushing though his veins , his ultimate goal in his grasp most would probably do the same. · 4523 days ago

I'll be watching you on Derby Day , and cheering you on!!!!BUENA SUERTE!

With the possibility of Johnny V going with Verrazano all the way to the Derby, who should Rosario choose between, Vyjack or Orb?

cocoa2 · The way Orb is running, and taking the more respected Florida route, I would assume that when the gates open Johnny V will remain atop Orb, especially because Vyjack's connections are less well known · 4585 days ago

To early with AK, To late with flat out. Joel is one of my young favorites, but I was not impressed today.

Joel Rosario, a 10-time Southern California riding champion who last year moved his base of operations to the East Coast under the direction of top agent Ron Anderson, is named on six horses opening day, but Anderson said the native of the Dominican Republic won’t remain at Santa Anita. “From time to time he’ll have stakes mounts at Santa Anita,” Anderson said, “but he’ll mainly be in Florida and where ever the stakes mounts take him.”
