WhoKnows 791 Report post Posted March 1, 2018 I think you are allowed to ride up to half a kilo overweight without being fined, but I stand to be corrected. It would be a concern going forward to anyone wanting to book him for a ride though as it seems to be an ongoing issue not being able to ride correct weight. A shame as on his day he is the best in the business, but when you place a decent size bet ( or any bet for that matter), you are placing it expecting the jockey to ride at the weight allocated.
