Jockeys that have left the racing scene

Last i heard of him was when there was that controversy about him riding without boots

dominic elsworth another that just seemed to disappear

Stephen Carson?

sacked by Eve, citing a lack of confidence as the reason, but dunno what became of him (or have forgotten )

Didn't someone post that Seb is riding abroad somewhere

Keirion Fallon is finnish.

Gerrad Butler the trainer seems to have given up the game his best horse was compton bolter

Butler was banned wasn't he?

Apparently he's working with an Irish trainer now.

David Loder was a decent low grade horse trainer but he just gone missing from the racing scene

I don't know how many thing is wrong with that last post

Nick Littmoden another trainer was very good low grade trainer he just had enough about the game

Loder still has a few on the jumps these days, unless he has a namesake

b jago what happened to him i aint seen him in years

Where is Fergal Lynch these days.

rode a winner in US other day did burgle

Wondering about a couple of irish jockeys. Paddy Flood and Mick Darcy

b j crowley was never the same after that bad injury,came back eventually but then just disappeared

what happened to chris catlin??

Neil Callan is in Happy Valley !

some jockeys retrain with the JETS scheme...suppose they know it's a short career and if you're not at the top of the tree then it's probably wise to see what else you can do

I wondered about Richie Killoran but i think he is an accountant or something similar now

sure Keith Mercer retrained and does something else now

mick darcy is a name i'd forgotten about

used to do ok on front-runners and i thought he did quite well considering the limited ammunition he had

Chris Catlin apparently gave up riding to become a work rider for Godolphin, which makes you wonder how much Godolphin pay their work riders!

Paddy Flood went out to Australia and rode a good few winners out there. He has returned to Ireland this year but doesn't seem to intend returning to the saddle. He was a very good rider before he left imo and rode a good winner @ Cheltenham for Tom Taaffe.

Mick Darcy was forced to retire at the end of last year due to recurring concussions.

Haven't a clue what he's up to these days.

Kirsty Milkshake?

Dale Mckeown and his brother gone missing

northern-based riders Dale Gibson and Gyles Parkin on ...

Re the post on Gerard Butler, a trainer who left the scene...

http://www.independent.ie/sport/horse-racing/trainer-gerard-butler-banned-for-five-years-after-appalling-dereliction-of-duties-29809608.html

I wonder what you have to do to get MORE than a five year ban

Kirsty had a baby

She'll be able to do her own milkshake.

Much more information about Past and Present Jockeys on there.

Keith Mercer is studying accountancy

He looked like a young Eric Idle (imo), and I thought he was alright as jockey but didn't seem to get many chances, Russ Kennemore!

Well if the jockey career didn't work out, I wonder if he considered a Monty Python tribute act!

Now who he could get to play the rest of the Monty Python team I'm not sure, though I reckon Willow would make a good John Cleese!

What happened to Wilson Renwick ?
Had his best ever season 2014/15 with 60 winners, not been sighted since.

Some shocking omissions from the list of jump jockeys that went missing in action.

Choc Thornton - Used to be no finer rider of the hurdles track at Cheltenham
Sam Thomas - Now a "highly successful" trainer
Christian Williams - Desperately unlucky with injuries
Robert Lucey-Butler - Eventually tired of riding bad horses for bad trainers
Eamon Dehdashti - Why Gary Moore used him as a conditional for so many years will remain one of life's mysteries but did ride Verasi to win the Lanzarote in 2007
Paddy Merrigan - Cool as a cucumber when riding Souffleur
Paul O'Neill - Used to ride Paul Beck's horses. The two were made for each other

wilson renwick broke collarbone, vertebra, may never recover to ride, seb sanders is in mauritius race riding, jamie mackay working at the boys in blue work rider

Looking at Russ Kennemore's twitter page, one of the last tweets is of him pictured with Lumiere last year, so putting my deerstalker on and calling myself Sherlock, does he or did he work for MJ?!

Also looks like he might have put a bit of weight on!

Jockey Renwick retires to pursue cycling career

WILSON RENWICK is attempting a dramatic career change, swapping horsepower for pedal power, as he announced his retirement from the saddle on Monday.
Jump jockey Renwick has not ridden under rules since last suffering multiple injuries in a fall at Market Rasen in May 2015.
Nerve damage sustained in his left arm has ultimately forced Renwick to call time on his career, and he told BBC Sport: "As well as the concussion, I broke a vertebra in my neck, my collarbone, my jawbone and a couple of ribs, and they've all healed.
"But nerve damage in my left arm means some of the muscle has wasted away and I've lost power in it, which won't come back, so that's it."
Reverse Pendleton
However, there are no problems with Renwick's legs, and he is now going to try and succeed as an elite cyclist, competing in endurance events.
Attached to the Italian team Parentini, Renwick is doing well in his new discipline. His switch in career path has obvious similarities to Olympian Victoria Pendleton, who succeeded in her goal of riding at last season's Cheltenham Festival.
"I have no solid plans, but doing a Pendleton in reverse and becoming a professional cyclist is the dream," Renwick added.
"Victoria did brilliantly getting to Cheltenham, and going some way to trying to emulate what she did would be quite something."
