Why did she quiz Haggas? How often does he put him up? Just got the standard response you would get from any racing insider.

"Hmm something is not being said !" My first thought exactly, and what was said seems carefully worded. Not his biggest fan, and when he was younger I thought too much was put on him too soon and he wasn't ready for it, and he wasn't no Walter Swinburn. Emma said he as a jockey he was like Marmite, punters either liked him or they didn't, yes, fair comment that. But more to this than what has been said. |

good riddens to an utter joke of a jockey - he won't be missed.
|
|
By:
I heard he was going to train greyhounds, cos they don't need jockys

By:
Got himself a nice job. He doesn't need the hard life any longer. He has made his money and he comes from a moneyed family.

He was interviewed on ATR on Tuesday afternoon - spoke about the big races coming up at York and also a race in France that a filly had been diverted to because of Tagroodha.
Thought he spoke very intelligently, was prepared to go to greater lengths than normal to analyse races etc. I think he'll do well in his new advisor role. |

By:
Could make a lot more money if it works out, without the aggravation, stallion rights etc. If it doesn't he can always come back riding.
|

By:
He might just be tired with maintaining the strict dietary regime required...it does sometimes happen with jockeys even those in privileged positions....he has plenty of money in the bank & this presents a great opportunity...if he has tired of race riding or the regime required to do so then cannot blame him really

By:
Perhaps he reads the regular BF forums in his honour and isn't so thin skinned.
|
|
By:
Without wishing to be over-flattering to Mr. Spencer, he's obviously made a huge success of his life thus far. All right minded human beings will wish him ever continuing good fortune in the years ahead.

By:
As a punter, I'll miss him because he was quite easy to read. The popular analysis of him that runs through this thread is wrong imo, or at least, it misses the most important truths about his strengths and weaknesses.
|

By:
I would say he will be on this forum in between races in the future to keep his mind occupied while there is a break between races
