in the late 90.s we used Ray Jr on our B track horses...he had so much talent,,but wasted it with his personal demons...my trainer stopped using him because he thought he stiffed a couple, and not  because of his drinking problem.........b ut nowadays i have no idea his whereabouts

Some like Case and Ray Sr can go on to have great careers in spite of their demons but Ray Jr  his demons ate him up.
Drivers should be drug tested and offered rehab programs
