Ryan Moore, what a lucky guy

I agree….loads of point and shoot material for decades giving the rider the same superlatives as a brain surgeon ffs

David Elsworth once said it 90% horse all the work is done at home

Walter Swinburn when the media were having an orgasm regarding Shergar…..I’m just a passenger on a good horse…albeit he was a class jockey….but come on….

Don't agree with that list at all, and I have criticised him as much as anyone.

They are all lucky to be around at a time of general mediocrity, and unfortunately, it's now the same situation under both codes.

Dettori could match most and look what happened to him last year…..hung,drawn & divided into four……

Being "the best" to fill any position is obviously not a necessity. Remember R Hills? For a long time I had myself convinced that Hamdan must've lost a bet that meant he was stuck with him until retirement.

Hollie Doyle V Ryan Moore in a driving finish and you thing Hollie is better?....

"Ryan. Cool as a cucumber. Homework. Determination. Much better than me," says Dettori. A truly outstanding jockey.

Now i think Hollie is very good but up against Moore my money is on Ryan every time.

is it Ryan Moores persona that people dont like/take too therefore the criticism

he gets the best horses atm because he's the best around just like Piggott, Eddery, Cauthen etc before him

his run ran out at Lingfield.

Best vs worst jockey is far too subjective , you'll end up with 10,000 posts , a million views and everyone will still believe exactly the same as the start of the thread.

Going around in circles with no definitive outcome.

Grossly overrated and loses more races with poor positional sense than he wins.

His A/E Ratio is appalling.

A/E .98 appalling?
