Good grief.
I can't remember how many years ago, but there was a jockey (Pedro Alvarez, I might have his spelling wrong) up at Hastings Park that was reported to have been seen with an electrical device while warming up before a race. He hopped off the horse and ran off the track with an "illness". Didn't ride the rest of the year, came back and rode the next year.
He is now training.

There has been nothing but problems with that guy for years, we are better off without him.
