Jockeys

There was apparently a new dressing room for Oaklawn Park jockeys, built in the barn area of the facility for morning training hours. Trainer D. Wayne Lukas told Rock it was near the track kitchen.
Rock found it, and saw several jockeys on their way out, including one on something he had never seen before. One of the riders rode out of the jocks' room on some sort or mechanical horse. It was about half the size of a real horse, made of hard plastic. It seemed to move on its own. Rock did not know its purpose.
