Online Horse Racing Wagering – Inside an Agents Head

[Shame About Ray]

Casual horse bettors know about workouts, track records, past performances and hot trainers, but what most don’t really know is who stirs the drink as far as which horses a rider will ride.

Enter the jockey agent. He’s part baby sitter, part shrink, part teacher, part politician and all dedicated to getting his rider the best mounts.

Because he’s unlike his counterparts in baseball or football, he doesn’t get paid by having his client sign a big contract, he gets paid by putting his rider on winning horses.

Arguably the best in the business is Ron Anderson, who has handled Hall of Famers Jerry Bailey and Gary Stevens and now works for Garrett Gomez and Johnny Velazquez.
