Interesting that connections have booked another world class jockey for what is relatively another modest flat race. Oisin is banned I believe.
However, why did they persist with Point to Point Nico for all those Grade 1s when Sean Bowen, Cobden etc would've jumped at the chance to ride him. Strange.

Be interesting to see where they go if it gets beat.

You think a defeat will see it go back to hurdles?

To forum fence sitter,

Stop repeating yourself with the same old taunts and give an opinion on the horse and race.

Jockey bash any of them mentioned if you like or even praise them if you can bring yourself to do so!

Henderson's loyalty to Nico no doubt, though the horse's only other under rules ride under another jockey was James Bowen losing last May in Punchestown. You have to admire loyalty in all walks of life but there have been better jockeys out there.

I hope that the horse wins, champion jockeys for me don’t always make for great jockeys, Nico has a lot of detractors and coming from a point to point back ground seems to be held against him?
We all start somewhere and he’s won some big races when under a huge amount of pressure.

Loyalty is a funny thing, looking back was Tom the best jockey available for Frankel? I never thought he’d ride him again after that ride and seeing Henry’s face in the St James’!!

These guys see something in them that others don’t and the owners have a second say yet follow suit.
