Ap & kf

[mrussell]

Two undoubtedly great jockeys. Here's an odd question: How would you characterise their relationship w. their mounts? To me, it seems AP masters them -- does KF have a more 'sympathetic' relationship?

 

[Gearoid]

I like to think that I'm master, yet sympathetic with my mounts. I also ease down on the newcomers when their chance has gone or their a bit green or hanging.

I like to model myself after Jamie Spencer: held up out the back, before coming with a winning late thrust...

held up out the back

Being tied up out the back is kinkier....

Modelling on JS Trackside could equally equate to taking the wrong option and getting in a right mess in a place where you didnt intend to be Trackside....

Mr Barry Connell (5).Often criticized but makes up for it with sheer enthusiasm and producing a stunning manoeuvre every so often.

When you have had a good day on Betfair and you decide to play up a lump on Frascatti Park at an inflated 6/5, you really appreciate Barry's endeavor....

for staying on the horse and winning by a snot....
