He did win a GN for PN but eaten bread is soon forgotten.

Whether BB won or not has nothing to do with the merit of his decision. He didn't want to ride because he hadn't got the balls for it.

If he declined the ride on Big Bucks because of the reasons stated, then his position was untenable. What owner wants a jockey that feels he is not up to the job??
