3-time Derby-winning jockey Calvin Borel retires (The Associated Press)
Three-time Kentucky Derby winner and Hall of Fame jockey Calvin Borel is retiring. The popular rider nicknamed ”Bo-rail” for his knack of finding a spot along the inside of the track told his agent, Larry Melancon, it’s time to call it a career. The 49-year-old rider is based in Oaklawn Park, and officials at the Arkansas track said Borel has been taken off all of his mounts this week.
