And now the outtakes from Jockey Style — the Gangnam Style imitation

First there was the "Jockey Style" video that was viewed over 600,000 times. Then there were the interviews. It was filmed by Luke Harvey. The song was written and sung by Kevin Tobin. The jockeys are: David Crosse, Gerard Tumelty, Sam Jones and Charlie Huxley. They go "Jockey Style."

And now we may be nearing the end. Here are the outtakes.



Here's the video — one last time.

San Pablo enters Aqueduct's $75,000 Queens County as heavy favorite on Saturday

San Pablo enters Saturday's $75,000 Queens County at Aqueduct as the 3-5 favorite. The race is a 1 1/8-mile race for 3-year-olds and up. San Pablo is 3-2-0 at Aqueduct. The last time San Pablo raced at Aqueduct was in March in the Excelsior Stakes (Grade 3), finishing second behind Marilyn's Guy in the six-horse field. San Pablo's last race was Nov. 21 in the Swatara Stakes at Penn National, where the four-year-old placed first, beating Norman Asbjornson in the four-horse field. Also in that race was Isn't He Perfect, who enters the Queens County at 5-1. Isn't He Perfect ran in the 2011 Preakness (9th) and Belmont (12th).

The second favorite is Gallant Fields (4-1). Gallant Fields has just one first-place finish in the past 12 races. In his last race, the Bold Ruler Handicap (Grade 3) at Belmont Park, Gallant Fields (ridden by Joel Rosario) finished sixth, a length ahead of heavy favorite, Caixa Eletronica.

The 2011 Queens County winner was Ron The Greek, beating Inherit The Gold.

Jockey Style revisited ... for better or worse. Kevin Tobin admits he wrote Jockey Style — a Gangnam Style imitation

Former English jockey Kevin Tobin admitted he was the wordsmith behind "Jockey Style," the semi-popular musical hit in the horse racing industry. (The definition of "semi-popular hit" can be debated by future generations, but it has nearly 600,000 views on YouTube.)

So what follows is horse racing's version of VH-1's semi-popular hit Behind The Music. The 90-second Gangnam Style imitation leads the video below, followed by an interview with Tobin, where he admits to writing the song. "I want to say I put a little bit of an effort into this, so I'd say it was upwards of 10 to 12 minutes," he joked. Tobin does credit fellow former jockey Luke Harvey for producing the video.

During the phone interview, Tobin, who currently resides in Baltimore, is goaded into singing the song with no musical accompaniment. And then, after about 10 seconds of a capella singing, he is told by the host: "Shut up. I can't stand anymore."

It's out with the old (Rafael Bejarano) and in with the new (Mike Smith) for Game On Dude in the Native Diver

Trainer Bob Baffert gets another chance to hit the re-set button on Game On Dude. After using jockey Rafael Bejarano aboard Game On Dude in the Breeders' Cup Classic (placing a disappointing seventh), Baffert switches to famed jockey Mike Smith. The switch makes one wonder whether the recently retired Chantal Sutherland was the best jockey for Game On Dude afterall.

The Native Diver Handicap is a Grade 3 race for three-year-olds and up. The purse is $250,000. The race is slated for 5:01 p.m. EST, Saturday, December 1, at Betfair Hollywood Park.

With the Native Diver slated as the fourth race, that leaves it out of the Pick Six on the Hollywood 10-race card. Smart move with Dude On Dude as the heavy favorite in just the five-horse field.

PP Horse, A/S, Jockey, weight, Trainer, ML
1 Game On Dude, 5/G, M E Smith, 124, B Baffert 3-5
2 Richard's Kid, 7/H, R Bejarano, 119, D F O'Neill 3-1
3 Make Music for Me, 5/H, T Baze, 117, A Barba 15-1
