PICTURE OF THE DAY

DON’T BE FOOLED. Last February, Animal Planet aired a new reality series called Jockey. It focused on the jockey colony at Santa Anita during their Oak Tree meet in October of 2008. AP would have you believe that a teenager newly arrived from Cajun Country was a rube looking to hit the big time.

Mission accomplished.

That young jock was one JoeTalamo who will be riding morning-line Kentucky Derby favorite I Want Revenge.
