Jockey Name: Valencia Andrews
Horses Ridden: 5 [Limited Edition, In The Spotlight, Ares, Devil's Flair, Cyclonaria]
Why Jockey Should Win: Valencia Andrews jockeyed strong horses to numerous victories this season. Limited Edition and In The Spotlight both ended the season with seven HoTY points, finishing near the top of their divisions. Ares proved himself capable as a sprinter and miler in the juvenile division, ending the season with six wins as a juvenile. Cyclonaria rocketed all the way into grade three herself, turning into a powerful latter-season force in the two year old division. Devil's Flair remained a bit under the headlines but is due for a strong return to the scene after this season. He raced consistently and there is no doubt that under Valenica's riding he will improve further. All of Valencia's horses were distinctively good.

Jockey Name: Kylie Silverstar
Horses Ridden: 2 [Pandora, Incognito]
Why Jockey Should Win: Kylie rode only two horses during Y15, but boy were they good. Pandora proved her toughness and consistency, facing both the dirt and turf horses of her division with success and then diving into competition against the older turf division. She won the Turf Triple Crown and a host of other races. Incognito entered the division a fan favorite and left it a proven champion and one of the favorites for the Triple Crown next season. He capped off his season with a Breeders Cup Juvenile victory and eight HoTY points - impressive credentials for a juvenile. With the jockeying of two such talented horses in only her second season as a jockey, Kylie proved her immense talent and is sure to get only better.
