My Name is Frank Lovato Jr. My friends call me Frankie, I was a jockey for 25 years though also created the Equicizer which is a mechanical horse for riders to train, exercise or rehabilitate with. I have retired from racing now and spend 100% of my time with my business with the Equicizer. Below are some of my racing photos of races I have won around the country, hope you enjoy my page!

I am also a musician and song writer as a hobby. A few years back, I had written a song for the motion picture Seabiscuit. Though the song did not make the movie, it did fall in the hands of Carly Kaiser who made this wonderful music video out of it. Keep in mind that while my song plays, many of the close up scenes with actor Tobey Maguire was with him riding my Equicizer which was used through out the movie. This made this video extra special for me with both my work with the Equicizer and music all together. Special thanks to Carly for finding my song and making this video. Hoping everyone can give it a watch an listen!
