Outrider Mike Chambless takes a moment with Otis on his last day at Gulfstream Park
Real cowboys don t walk around calling themselves cowboys. You ll know you ve met one when you come across an individual with an intuitive understanding of horses, who probably doesn t say very much, and who has earned the respect of everyone around them.
By all accounts, outrider Mike Chambless is as good a cowboy as they come. The 66-year-old earned the respect of every trainer, exercise rider, and pony person at Gulfstream Park during his tenure at the South Florida racetrack.
“I m not that good at standing there talking to people, dealing with different mentalities and personalities,” Chambless said. “The horses are what I thrive on, and I m only as good as the horse I m sitting on.”
