Jockeys in Tight Finishes
The table ranks jockeys by the number of winners they had to the number of losers to within a neck. The ratio is determined by dividing the number of wins by the number of non wins (losing within a neck). Any figure above 1.00 means that the jockey has won more tight finishes than he has lost and is thus a strong jockey in that situation. A figure less than 1.00 means that the jockey is weak, or just doesn't have the strength or guts to battle out a finish.
