Good question, the rules of racing make it difficult for Jockeys to make mistakes without consequence, the rest is just conjecture.I try to be fair in any assessment which can be difficult when the big money's up but I'm generally a very good loser ( you get used to it in this game)making allowance for the difficult and variable nature of this great Sport.

MissJools 509 Report post Posted December 2, 2023 Good to see Kelly not only back riding, but winning as well. We need as many senior jockeys we can get at the moment.

Ponderosa8 1,366 Report post Posted December 3, 2023 Saw the interview and had a little chuckle when she dropped the "shit". She's obviously worked very hard for all the amount of time she's been out as she's looking very fit and healthy. And she liked the chances of her mount in the last and I was happy as I got it earlier at 16's FF. I obviously expected it to drop in a bit after the interview... End up closing at 26's!!!... argh Insider, THE TORCH and Memphis3 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice to see someone standing up to those that think they're too good for everyone else. So what do they do when it flies back in their face? Have a wee cry to the stipes. Please.
