Noel Fehily riding Kauto in the King George

Excellent. Perfect jockey for KS. Similar in style to Ruby and very sympathetic. So pleased it's not AP whose style wouldn't suit him at all.
 
Yes Noel is a very good jockey and I followed him a lot in his rides for Charlie Mann. He gave Master Minded a copybook ride last weekend and Nicholls was already hinting that he may be the jockey for Kauto after the Amlin chase on Saturday. It would not have bothered me if AP had been given the ride but he probably has other ride commitments over Christmas for Jonjo and JP. Although after the fall of Albertas Run in Master Minded's race I would have doubts about the horse's participation in the King George as he took a heavy fall and looked to have twisted his back in the process.
 
Well that throws a spanner in the works - Noel Fehily has suffered a suspected fractured wrist, if correct they will be needing to find another jockey for KS on Boxing Day. What a shame I was really looking forward to seeing him ride KS :(
