Andrew Castle suffered a neck injury in a race fall and further riding would have put him at serious risk of a bad injury.

Retired, underrated jockey IMO

Chris Graham is fifo

Muldoon · February 2025

Whatever happened to Willie White, surely not a taxi driver :D

Saw him at the car place and had a good chat to him. Long story short, told him a story about a tip we got on a horse called Octalert. Horse ridden by Willie himself. Octalert was a crazy horse, wore pacifiers to try and calm it down but the tip was strong from a reliable source. Anyway me and a mate go down to Pinj to back it. We got on, only to be rolled by a nose by an 80/1 pop. Only thing we could afford on the way home was a 30c ice cream from maccas hahaah. We had a good laugh telling the story, he even remembered the race.

fair drive Vincent to get rolled by a 80/1 pop. Hoped you got a bit back throughout the day

thefalcon · February 2025

yeah, lee newman. i had dinner with him one night along with ........ he's good conversationalist and an all round nice guy. i broke him up with the following story.

a young girl from glasgow takes a skirt into a drycleaners.

"can i ha it back be 5 o'clock"

the drycleaner was somewhat deaf and cupped his ear "come again"

" nay, this time its mayonaise"

Paul Dyson has had a few trial rides recently....a misprint or is he making a comeback ?

See a Geordie Dobie licensed jockey in the latest racing calendar....any info ?

spinking · February 2025

Dodgers on the comeback trail. Reckon he would have to be early to mid sixties

thefalcon · February 2025

isn't ther an age limit on jocks?

what on earth has posessed him, imagine the physical rigours he must go thru.

you'd think his family would say "whoa old fella, back to the spelling greenery"

Manchild · February 2025

Dodger is 62

thefalcon · February 2025

with cjp and cp and his brothers virtually having a mortgage on all the good sits i'd say a 62yo on the come back trail is in for a pretty hard slog.

BUT there are trials...how much a ride these days?

Manchild · February 2025

$80 per trial , $240.00 per race ride

Manchild · February 2025

$110.00 in Sydney /Melbourne/ Brisbane . NT is $400.00 per ride.

Manchild · February 2025

Trials are $110.00 I should have said.

SLIPPERGOLDEN · February 2025

Money is very good for events in which you don't have to try to win....... Same with the trials :)) :)) :))

Why ask about that twat? One of the worst riders and should have got life for a certain ride.. In a way he did.

Lee is riding in Bahrain

spinking · February 2025

What ride was it Slip?

SLIPPERGOLDEN · February 2025

Pushin' Shapes

SLIPPERGOLDEN · February 2025

Was it Lee Newman that rode a double at very long odds one day in two legs of the final Quaddie for Fenella Martin at Pinjarra I think if not then Bunbury? Was certainly a UK jockey.
