Will the silliness ever end? How long was she retired? All of two minutes?

Gary Stevens is to blame.

making comebacks look easy (and fun!) since 2013!

Can DRF really call it a comeback if you have been out 5 months? If that is the case, I can't believe Wise Dan is making his comeback. What a story - unbelievable!

I think the over under on a true comeback is 3 yrs.

Agreed. Comeback is not the right word to use here.

When watching the reality show 'Jockeys' , I got the impression during her fights with Mike Smith that she wanted to get married and have kids...


I was thinking 'good for her' . when she got married / retired while her body was still in good shape / functional.


But I also understand how when you love the adrenaline rush associated with and your old job, it is hard to retire.


I wish her the best.

Like I said in the post I made in early November, she quit b/c she was heart broken over losing the mount on Game On Dude. She took a long break, her heart has healed and wants to come back. Anyone could have seen this coming. She made too much damn money on good horses just to retire and do nothing at her age.

She sat on the set of TVG during the Big Cap broadcast and she probably said to herself "this doesnt feel right, im a jockey, that's what i do, i should be out there were i belong"
