I won't name particular jockeys since that is unfair.
The whole lot are a shambles. ![]() ![]() |

Well, that's the case. I watched one being interviewed, and the commentator asked what did you think of the pace of the race. The jockey looked down from the horse like the commentator was on another planet.

A jockey today must be accountable.
Jockeys in the past did possess some brain, and, therefore, could recognise accountability. This lot! Who the F*** were their teachers and stable mentors? |

I though it was common knowledge that flat jockeys swap their brains for their riding licences .

How don't they understand pace @cutter27?
Most that are not getting regular rides, i would think, are just not fit enough. Plus, the better the horse, the more likely it is to relax into the bridle and go the pace of the race. And a jockey that is not riding regularly, won't really be on anything other than bad to moderate horses. And those ponies need the jockey to be awake to issues at the start, be fit enough to kick/push it for 6f/1m, be race experienced to know when the gap will appear, and know when to pull up sticks and accept you're not winning. Its circular, bad horses , bad jockey, more bad horses. |

Whilst your busy slagging jockeys off please spare a thought for Michael O'Sullivan, Stefano Cherchi, Brian Taylor, Manny Mercer and all the other jockeys who have lost their lives whilst riding for your entertainment.
