What is the average purse % do the best jockey's get on a stakes win( Given that some riders riding fees are alot higher) ex. Garrett Gomez, Rafael Bejarano, javier Castellano & John Velasquez, and let;s not forget Mike Smith.

    I believe the Jockeys get 10 % of the purse and then their agent gets 25% of that .
