Break Time for "Agapito time"

If you follow me on twitter you know about my "Agapito time" tweets. Nothing like getting a winner (often at a nice price) with Agapito in the saddle.

I'm disappointed (that he's not going to ride) to pass along the news (but happy that he's taking a break) that jockey Agapito Delgadillo will be taking a break from riding at the conclusion of the current Santa Anita Park meet (Nov 2). No injuries. No problems. He just decided he wanted to take a break and have some time off to refresh. He doesn't really know for how long. It might be a month or two or more.

In the meantime, let's hope we get a few more winners with Agapito riding. There's 9 more racing days left in the meet.

El jinete Agapito Delgadillo se estara tomando unas vacaciones al termino de esta temporada en Santa Anita Park (Nov 2). No es por lesiones o por problemas, solamente quiere disfrutar algún tiempo de descanso. Puede ser por un mes o dos o tal vez mas.
