Big-Race-Rider of 2009:

Lots of big spots, lots of big wins for this crew. Calvin Borel won the race EVERY rider wants to win, the Derby. Plenty of big wins for Garrett Gomez in Southern California, but Julien Leparoux made a big impact almost everywhere else. Mike Smith? Can you say p-r-e-s-s-u-r-e?
