From Times wire services

Chris Antley was surprised today with all the attention he got for losing on five mounts. There was a good reason.

Antley’s record 64-day consecutive winning streak ended Monday at Aqueduct when the jockey failed to win any of his five races.

“This is the first time I’ve ever been winless and gotten press,” Antley said. “I’m happy.” During his streak, which began on Feb. 8, Antley had 26 multiple win days, including five victories on March 27. The streak included a total of 147 winners out of 486 mounts.

“Once I got 56, I was satisfied,” Antley said. “This is all extra. Tomorrow (Wednesday) might be one in a row.”
