Ohokaman 5,841 Report post Posted January 29, 2018 Yes, he's obviously pretty keen to keep that relationship going. I doubt the owners want another rider either. Too much at stake. https://www.racenet.com.au/news/another-twist-in-the-winx-jockey-plot-20180129 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trump 2,741 Report post Posted January 29, 2018 So Racing NSW can reduce his suspension in order for him to ride Winx? Cool! It will happen. Meantime, Ladbrokes have a market open on who will be the Jockey. Michael Walker is paying $41 and may be the "Dark Horse" ( or should that be "Dark Jockey"?). He may just be a good chance because he's been riding a few for CJW. But my bet is that Bowman will get a reduction from RNSW......

Maximus 438 Report post Posted February 1, 2018 any chance Winx's return will be delayed? Turny 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ohokaman 5,841 Report post Posted February 1, 2018 I see the owners are saying don't get excited. No serious discussions have been had over riders as the race is three weeks away and any decision made in haste might blow up if the rider gets suspended or injured. They will wait and see how Bowman gets on with his appeal, then decide. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest 2Admin2 Report post Posted February 5, 2018 I think I'd wait. However at her best she'd win with any underfed short arse riding her. E.g Mackenzie or Molloy. She will be at her most vulnerable first up this time. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bowman is an important part of this partnership and they will want to keep that unbeaten run going. gubellini 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
