Ooh er Rowenna, that sounds like you have first hand experience, LOL. It's just that I've never seen him reward the horse after the race - he seems to be in it for himself and appears not to consider the horse's welfare. I agree he's a superb jockey, and extremely determined but he just seems to lack somewhat in the emotional area, and I find it hard to watch. I love racing, and as you know I have two ex-racers, but there's just something about him I can't bring myself to like! Maybe it would be different if I met him in person as people always come across different on a TV screen....

If I ever see him pat/reward a horse when he's finished a race, then I'll think about it - until then, no thanks.
