Seabuscuit - Ice Man Story

In a horse race, there are horses and jockeys. From a human point of view, a jockey is considered to be riding the horse, but is it the way it is?

Well, it is a horse race then it is the horse that matters. Then the view should be stand from the race, meaning that its the horse that bear the jockey to run.

Every single horse has its own characteristics, frequency/length of step, power band etc. Without the jockey, horses couldn't perform its best run on its own, and of course, no horse, no race then no jockey.

The jockey is riding the horse or the horse is bearing the jockey to run, that's the chemical reaction everyone is placing their lucky bet on. In reality, the horse and the jockey are match by random select in horse races that we can gamble.

At the end, I just want to ask:

When is Santa Anita derby?(I know its on April)

Is there a silver purse day?

Are there any horse shoe(resembles Luck, like Lucky Baldwin, who bought Rancho Santa Anita) for sale?

I have had played soccer on the field inside the track and had English/Chinese Tea in the club house(Royal Hong Kong Jockey Club) when I was living in Hong Kong, and yet I am not very familiar with Santa Anita Park all through this 12 years of life in Arcadia.

Ice Man, the pro.
