Longtime ESPN horse racing columnist and Oklahoma-based author/journalist Jay Cronley died on Feb. 26, 2017. Cronley was the author of seven books, including "Funny Farm" and "Quick Change," which were made into movies that starred Chevy Chase and Bill Murray, respectively. But for passionate horse racing fans, Cronley is best-remembered as the witty author whose novel "Good Vibes" was made into the sport's cult classic "Let It Ride."
