I am a HORSEPLAYER but a HORSEPLAYER who has learned to avoid the best horses/most valuable horse when an over rated stiff artist is riding.
Every situation is different but extremely bluntly, I'd rather have Angel Arroyo on my horse than Irad/Jose/Javier/JV.
Even though they are somewhat talented (tallest midgets but way under par in terms of great), they are over rated.
Now, if we're talking a G1 or a real $$$$ race, I'd have to prefer to have the tallest midget (in terms of talent) on my horse (Javier or otherwise VS. a low % jock).

Problem is Irad, Jose, Javier etc are capable of producing stunning rides at times and winning races that they shouldn't win. They are exceptionally skilled jockeys.. when they are in their best form...
