OZONE PARK, N.Y. - Though racing resumed Thursday at Aqueduct following a dispute between the jockeys and New York Racing Association management, there were still some who harbored bitter feelings toward the jockeys regarding the circumstances that led to the cancellation of the final eight races of Sunday’s card. Sandy Goldfarb, a prominent New York owner, came to Aqueduct Thursday not only because he had a horse running but because he wanted to tell the jockeys how upset he and his fellow owners were over their refusal to ride on Sunday. “Happy with your actions?” Goldfarb said he told jockey Manny Franco who rode Goldfarb’s horse Endless Kiss in Thursday’s first race. “Who did you hurt? The owners, fans, and trainers. I came to tell it to their faces. When trainers do something wrong, trainers get fined or suspended. What’s going to happen to these guys? We want action.” When asked if he wanted the jockeys to be fined or suspended, Goldfarb said “Yeah.” The jockeys refused to ride the final eight races of Sunday’s card in support of assistant clerk of scales Brian Pochman, who was sent home by New York Racing Association management following Sunday’s first race after he expressed concern about new protocols for weighing-in jockeys after a race. NYRA management wanted Pochman to write down the weights in a program in addition to having them recorded electronically on the scale. :: Access the most trusted data and information in horse racing! DRF Past Performances and Picks are available now. Pochman expressed concern to NYRA officials that additional mistakes could be made based on the protocols NYRA wanted him to perform. When Pochman got sent home after Sunday’s first race, the jockeys got upset and refused to ride the remainder of the card. Kendrick Carmouche, a leading rider on this circuit and a Jockeys’ Guild representative, said Sunday that sending Pochman home was against the jockeys’ wishes and was another example of management not looking out for the riders. “They don’t respect us, they don’t care about our feelings, they don’t care about making us feel like we’re the head of the sport because we are the jocks, we do make the show go on,” Carmouche said. That comment infuriated Goldfarb. “They are the show?” Goldfarb said. “These trainers look at these horses day in and day out seven days a week, they get on the horse for a minute and they run the show?” Goldfarb was also upset with NYRA management for allowing the jockeys to refuse to ride without any repercussions. “Management should hold them responsible and that’s really the bottom line,” Goldfarb said. “It’s a terrible situation. I haven’t seen people so enraged. . . . I’m on the [New York Thoroughbred Horsemen’s Association] board, I’ve talked to my friends on the NYRA board and I haven’t seen people so [bleeping] pissed off. It’s beyond anybody’s scope of thinking. What were they thinking?” On Thursday, Pochman resigned his position as assistant clerk of scales but will remain employed by NYRA as a clocker. The duties of the assistant clerk of scales have now been reassigned to alternate NYRA racing officials, according to a NYRA spokesman. Following Thursday’s first race, the clerk of scales, Rosemary Pasquarello, read the weights aloud and they were written down in a program by Juan Dominguez, one of several safety stewards NYRA employs. Additionally, NYRA plans to install surveillance cameras to record the weigh-in and weight-out process for every race at all NYRA facilities. The cameras at Aqueduct are expected to be in place by year’s end. Carmouche, who won Thursday’s first race on Waveless for trainer Todd Pletcher and owner Mike Repole, declined comment after the race, referring a reporter to Jockeys’ Guild president and CEO Terry Meyocks. Meyocks said the Guild agreed to the new protocols, including the installation of surveillance cameras, put forth by NYRA. :: Subscribe to the DRF Post Time Email Newsletter: Get the news you need to play today's races!  Officials from NYRA and the New York Gaming Commission said they do not have reason to believe that jockeys are riding at incorrect weights. However, two steeplechase riders, Danny Mullins and Gerard Gilligan, were suspended 15 days and fined $1,000 for “not carrying designated weight” in the Grade 1 Jonathan Sheppard Steeplechase at Saratoga in August, according to a Gaming Commission ruling. Mullins rode fourth-place finisher St. James the Great and Gilligan was on Givemefive, who finished seventh. Those horses were ordered unplaced in the official order of finish. In a way to make up for Sunday’s canceled races, NYRA added a day of racing next Wednesday. Also, as is NYRA policy, following the posted Lasix administration time for a canceled race, the managing owner of a horse receives a flat fee of $500 and the trainer receives a flat fee of $300 for every runner denied an opportunity to race due to the cancellation. That money comes from the purse account. :: Want to learn more about handicapping and wagering? Check out DRF's Handicapping 101 and Wagering 101 pages.
