Let's state the facts. Jerry Bailey is still Mott's man. If Bailey likes
another horse when Mott is entered he rides another horse, If
he prefers Mott's horse, he will ride for Mott. The reason luzzi had an O.k. belmont meet with Mott was, Bailey was off some days at Belmont, Bailey sometimes chose the wrong steed to ride, and Luzzi rode the better Mott horse. Luzzi developed a nice rapport with Mott, but to use him exclusively when Mr. Bailey is unavailable, will not last for ever, As we all know.
