Jockeys – Chantal vs. Mike
Jockeys – Chantal vs. Mike
During the final week of the Oak Tree Meet, canadian rider Chantal Sutherland goes head-to-head on the track against her boyfriend, Hall Of Fame Jockey Mike Smith.
Get ready for the ride of your life. Nearly 10 times a day during the famous 30-day Oak Tree Meet at the Santa Anita Race Track, the world’s most skilled jockeys and the boldest thoroughbreds line up at the gate to compete for big bucks or go home broke, risking life and limb in their quest for glory. Competition comes from across the country and the world in search of elusive winnings all for the love of horse racing. Minutes before the race, the jockeys clad in their colorful “silksâ€� mount up. They sometimes have as little as 10 minutes to bond with their horses, each relying on the other for success and survival. Â
