His dad is Ray Carroll vital memeber of the DK Weld set up for years, understudy when Mick Kinane was 1st jockey.

He rode for Oxx back in the 70's. Very promising jock in his day.

Thanks lads.

was unlucky do be disqualifed on Sorbus in the Oaks for Oxx.

A ridiculous decision.

He was the equivalent of wayne Lordan today. A middle of the range jockey.

Fair play soap, there's nowt wrong with your memory!!

Probably right Kavvie.

I tell you his grand father was good too. The bould Frankie Carroll!! A good lightweight NH jockey.

Bert Auld and Frankie Shortt I think. John Shortt's old man.

All I heard about Frankie Carroll going back many years. He was seen at Lough Derg one year and a Jackeen said out aloud surely he won't put us wide HERE if we ask him for a tip!!

i was talking to frank ennis tonight at naas soaap,we started reminising about baldoyle and the 1ml 6fur hurdle races , he told me he was riding a mare who knocked the hurdle out of the ground and as they arrived at the next hurdle another jockey called out to him pull her up, pull her up , he looked down and saw a stake from the previous hurdle sticking out of her chest , she fell over and bleed to death and gave him a terrble fall , those were the days .

Smashing young jockey 3 winners from 4 rides today. On top of 3 winners at Galway last week.
Report observerirl August 3, 2009 4:32 PM BST
All those winners for different trainers. Fair play to the lad. Lets hope he can keep going for many years to come.

A jockey to follow. Think he might be getting a bit too heavy for the flat unfortunately.
