Well Wishes For Samyn
Jean Luc Samyn recently lost a good part of two fingers and broke his thumb on his right hand during a snowblower accident.
The Veteran jockey said he will still return to the saddle ,
hopefully the end of March after some therapy.
Good luck to him and hopefully the snow is over !!!

Over 50 people have read this and no one has had the sympathy to wish Samyn well?
He's not important enough?
Get better JLS.

That is sad! I remember him(on the green) from the 1980s, and a first class guy. Best wishes, and hope to see him at the track

One of the true journeyman riders. I first saw him at Saratoga in the late 70's.
Get well soon JLS!!!
Oh, next time you need your driveway cleared, hire the kid from across the street to shovel it off!!!!

Yeah, for the late P. G. Johnson (Pee Gee).
Get well for the turf season, Jean-Luc!

From what I hear and know, JLS is an all-around nice guy...if you've heard differently, I don't wanna know... 
Tough to take such a savage injury to the very tools of his trade, but good to hear he intends to return...best wishes Jean-Luc!

I too have admired Samyn for a long time.
Hope the rehab goes well, Jean-Luc.
