I wouldn't say it was "a list of jockeys who don't try" . That infers that the editors of the form were doing something that could be libelous. What the form used to do (I can't remember when they quit, but it was approximately when the old eastern "broadsheet" version went to tabloid size) was publish all stewards rulings, even from small tracks, and even for non- horse personnel, like parking lot attendants. If a jock had a ruling for non effort, it was published in the drf. Overages, fights, you name it. And they were published with the persons actual, complete social security number. I collect old forms , so I have a lot of these lurking in my basement.
