Sheikh Mo tbf can't spend all his time on racing. He is PM/President/King/Dictator of a country of over 2m people.
But surely Crisford has a f/t job as Racing Manager ?

Godolphin site: "In addition to working as racing manager, he also carries out duties similar to those of any chief executive of a major company – he ensures the smooth running of the entire Godolphin operation."

I can't see how he can possibly remain in the role over this. The biggest scandal in many a year, going on right under his nose.

Having met him a couple of times, it's a shame because he's always seemed a really decent bloke, but business is business.

Nice guy he may be but surely his position is now untenable.
Report salmon spray • April 25, 2013 11:58 AM BST
I would have thought he had to go.
Not that he necessarily knew what was going on,but he should have.

salmon,

If he didn't know, then it's hard to describe it as anything other than incompetence.
If he did know, well...
Report salmon spray • April 25, 2013 12:05 PM BST
My thought exactly Dr gonzo. Similar to The Director-General of the BBC finding his position impossible over the Savile ****-up.

Sheikh Mo should sack both trainers and transfer all 500 horses to Henry,

that's the only way the forum vigilante mob will be appeased Crazy

BREAKING NEWS:  Simon Crisford is to become Suarez's agent from next season.
Report salmon spray • April 25, 2013 12:36 PM BST
Natural transition.
Suarez must be on something.

I'm not sure that Crisford is anything more than the public face of Godolphin. He's like an after dinner speaker on retention. PR dream!
Report posy • April 25, 2013 1:39 PM BST
the answer to the original question would seem to be 'not a lot' as he's not been seen or heard from since the scandal broke
Report salmon spray • April 25, 2013 10:53 PM BST
He has now.
Very chummy with the BHA despite the fact that he is described on Godolphin's own website as the equivalent of a Chief Executive.
Sword fall on.

Simon Crisford is a top guy ,had a drink with him and his wife Yootha Joyce many years ago when he was a bingo caller at Mecca.

Yootha Joyce died of alcoholism      Shocked

Simon Crisford is a TOP bloke. Bought me a whiskey chaser in Ministry of Sound last year
Report salmon spray • April 25, 2013 11:46 PM BST
Sounds as though his job is to buy drinks         Shocked
Obviously not been made to convert.

I imagine that throughout his life Simon Crisford has had a good run of the dice. He will struggle brush this off as easily as Frankies dandruff.
