The Race Won in Silence

On June 4, 1923, Belmont Park held what seemed like an ordinary race. Among the riders was Frank Hayes, a 35-year-old jockey aboard a filly named Sweet Kiss.

Midway through the race, fate struck—Hayes suffered a fatal heart attack. Yet, against all odds, his body remained balanced in the saddle, hands still gripping the reins. Sweet Kiss thundered on, never faltering, carrying her rider to the finish.

When the wire was crossed, she was first. The crowd erupted, unaware that the winning jockey would never hear their cheers. It wasn’t until afterward that they realized Frank Hayes had passed during the race.

He became, and remains, the only jockey in history to win a race while dead. A strange, haunting victory—etched forever into horse racing lore.

This is what many people don’t want to deal with…older horses and the little inconveniences, the extra steps it takes to keep them thriving each day. Sitting in the barn, waiting patiently as they finish their warm mash, knowing it takes them longer to eat than it takes you to do all your chores. Watching their joints stiffen, adjusting blankets, mixing supplements, making sure they’re comfortable.
It isn’t always easy. But they gave you their best years, their strength, their spirit, their loyalty. They carried you, trusted you, worked for you. They gave without question.

The least we can do is give back with patience, love, and dignity in their twilight years. Because they deserve nothing less.

: Sitting deep in the saddle is not about leaning back. It’s about using your core muscles to be more of a presence in the saddle. I like to think of my torso as a French press. To sit more deeply, I push the plunger down. All leaning back does is push my lower leg out in front, disengage my abdomen, and make my low back squish in a direction that is not conducive with my own long term soundness.
