Aldo On fire.

Another one 6 winners superb stuff

Big Congrats to Aldo. Marvelous achievement (equaling Strydom's number of winners in a racemeeting?)

Fantastic ALDO,days like today don't come easily.

100% strike rate, 6 rides 6 winning rides. Well Done.

Achievements like this should be celebrated. He should be given some kind of momento.

I see the apple does not fall far from the tree. Aldo riding like his dad, Andrew!!!

The question is did anyone take the 7000/1?

Strydom rode 7 in a day..............surprised Dave S didn't remember it as it was on the famous "matchday"........... Brainteaser, who was beaten by the Cliffie Otto-trained Divine Act,

Basil Marcus also rode 7 and I believe Tiger Wright also rode 7?..........

Jeff Lloyd did 7 winners more than once (in SA)............

Garth Puller also rode 7 in Cape Town.......... :ohmy:

I'm sure Gavin V rode 6 or 7 also ?

Gary Waterston, as an appie, rode the card Ascot, Bulawayo. As did Frankie's magnificent seven (the card) Royal Ascot 2006.
ElvisIsKing's Dad rode a world record of 13 I think.

You right CM was with the connections of Divine Act and cant remember much after that race

Eddie Castro’s nine wins in one day (June 4, 2005)

The skinny: Two jockeys, Chris Antley and Eddie Castro, have won nine races in one day, but the unvarnished record belongs to Castro. Antley needed a day and a night to win his nine, at Aqueduct and the Meadowlands in 1987. He rode in 14 races overall. On June 4, 2005, Castro won nine races and finished second and fourth in two others while riding 11 times on a 13-race card at Calder. Castro, 20, had come from his native Panama to win the Eclipse Award for apprentices two years before. On his big day at Calder, he finished second in the first race, won the second through the fourth, skipped the fifth, won the sixth, skipped the seventh, finished fourth in the eighth, then won the last five. None of his winners paid more than $13 for a $2 win ticket. His ninth winner, Ben's Advantage, returned $3.80. By then, everybody in the joint wanted to bet on Castro.

Why this is unbreakable: According to the American Racing Manual, nine jockeys have had eight-win days, three of them pulling a Chris Antley and riding at two tracks. But there hasn't been an eight-bagger at one track since Pat Day went 8 for 9 at Arlington Park in 1989. The first jockey to win eight was Hubert Jones, at Agua Caliente in 1944. I once asked Jones what he remembered most about that day. "All the cigarettes I smoked," he said. "The more I won, the more nervous I got."
