Awful bad luck for Noel Fehily.
Ruby
- Thread starter sunybay
- Start date
Poor Noel Fehily! In full flight at the moment and having the chance to show the world just how good and (until recently) under-rated he has been.
Rotten, rotten luck.
Hope it's not too complicated and he's back quickly enough to continue showing what he's made of before Ruby reappears.

Hard to see his body holding on for too much longer

I have been saying that for some time now but does he listen ?
I sincerely hope he gets to bow out on his terms ; witnessing Mr Brooks falling over Lester Piggott in 92 Breeders Cup took more out of me than Lester.

Look how miserable McCoy is on ITV racing. How do you retire with all those good horses to ride? Let someone else ride Footpad?

At his current rate of knots, the decision will be made for him rather than by him

Ah lads he is the greatest ever and still riding close to the peak of his powers unlike Geraghty who is a shadow of his former self.
Hopefully he can stay intact for this season which I agree will be his last.

What's the story here?
His stats suggest he's doing absolutely fine.

Nothing wrong with Geraghty, Would have him seven times a week and twice on a Sunday over Ruby.

You are 100% correct -BJG is a shadow of the jockey he was.

Luke just beat me to it . For sure over fences he nothing like the jock he was when riding for henderson.
The JP job was the wrong one for BJG in terms of his ability as a jockey IMO as he was never going to get horses to win when they had no right to like AP did. Maybe the right one in terms of swelling his bank balance though

BJG was going to retire but decided for whatever reason to do one more year. I don't think we'll see him on the JP plots in March.
Has to be Rubys last season now surely. Don't think we'll see anyone for some time get anywhere near his Cheltenham statistics, phonmeonal, even if half the horse were steering jobs.
Wonder if Willie will give Townend the big slot, or look at poaching someone else.

Can't see why he'd go for anyone else.

I'd say t will be shared out etween them all but PT will likely have dibs - Rachel blackmore will prob land a few nice mounts also

Blast - I was really hoping he would keep going at least until my youngster hits the track

Given that he was supposed to be aiming to be back for Listowel, it was odd to see Ruby in Seoul helping to saddle Riven Light. However, as Paul has ridden a four-timer today, owners probably don't have too many concerns.
