Mark Walsh odds on, but I reckon that Jonjo jnr has got to be in the running. I saw 1st hand at Cheltenham some years back that JP and Jonjo Snr are very good friends and Jonjo Jnr is an excellent young jockey.

In the UK Jonjo Jr. Ireland, Walsh or Kennedy after the exit of Gigginstown.

I believe that Walsh is already JPs jockey in Ireland

Got to be as it is and Walsh gets the pick if he fancies coming to the UK to ride them as well?

racing post reporter stuart ridley goes for either nico de boinville or harry cobden.
 why would either want to leave the 2 biggest jobs. |
|
By:
... they'd leave the big jobs for a big sack of JP's cash.

What a daft suggestion? The reporter could be on a commission.

Jonjo jnr fits the Mcmanus thinking. My metaphorical bet would be the young Irishman going placing and friend of the family.

By:
Is Jonjo Jr too young though?
On past form JP wants an experienced jockey with a good Cheltenham record and an Irish accent. Dickie J has two out of three. |
|
By:
Jonjo jnr riding style like B Geraghty is totally unsuited to the vast majority of JPs horses which are slowboats which need strengh
behind the saddle and kicked and pushed most of the way around.R Johnson would be just the man for the job. |

Is being Irish a prerequisite? JP is known to be a punter. Both question and observation are independent and un-related.

He's going to want a jockey for the long term, Johnson is probably 10 years too late.

Older than Bazza. Still, JP is no spring chicken. Tbh if I were advising JP I'd say take one of the Harrys but I'm not. The market is on who he will pick, not who he should pick.
