I will. I don't know when its going to be filmed yet. Last year they filmed the pilot in March and then the show in Sept and Oct. With the triple crown races coming up maybe it will be soon. |

He is a jockey. It is pretty cool. I used to go to the track a lot but got bored with it. I used to go everyday. Then I was going about once a week but lately not much at all. I finally went today after not being there in about 3 weeks. He had a decent shot in the stake race so i went to cheer him on. He wound up in a dead heat for 4th. It's pretty cool because his family is very well known in racing. His 2nd cousin Russell (well i don't know if thats what he would be called but thats what we call him. Its his dad's cousin) is leading the nation for lifetime wins and is a very close 2nd for lifetime wins in the world with over 10,000 wins. He rides up north at Golden Gate. Mr. PS's cousin Tyler also rides here at Santa Anita so they kind of hang out together in the jockey's room. Then there is Mr. PS who started riding at 16 and has been riding races now for almost 6 years. We met shortly after he started riding back in NJ at Monmouth Park. It for sure is a crazy life. I am used to the fact now that he is followed by an ambulance everyday and that i could be watching or get a phone call that he went down. I don't necessarily get nervous but it's always in the back of my head. His weekends are Monday and Tuesday but he still has to work in the morning on those days. Sometimes he'll get a morning off though. Anything else in particular anyone wants to know? |

He has. How many i don't know. Actually one of my all time favorite race horses is a FL bred. He actually runs today at Philly Park his name is Hot Finance. When we were in NJ a lot of the trainers that were there spent the winter in FL so they had a bunch of FL breds. Out here most are CA or KY bred but there are some FL breds. This week entries are only up for wed, thurs, and friday and there are 2, 5, and 4 FL breds running. |

I am super shy (partly why i usually don't post much and just lurk) and i am afraid people would think i am bragging or something because of his job. I dunno I am weird like that (stupid social anxiety! ) Its a lot of fun and cool that he loves horses as much as i do. Although it makes it hard because he never wants to come watch me ride because he is around horses all the time for work. I usually can get him out to the barn every 6 months or so.

1st of all cool beans PS! As for the show it was pretty good. All the falls were far off and they did not zero in on them. they do keep showing the falls but never up close! It is fun to see there lives and of course the cute horse. Mike Smith rides a mare (Zenyatta) who is gorgeous! I will keep watching it but the format is not so great with ads every 3 seconds! Thank god for my DVR!
