      Didn't this happen to Hills a few years ago and everyone's ante post bets either got wiped or their price had gone ?
      Or did I dream that....

                  I noticed this

                  Sam and Danny jumped well ahead of him in the pecking order nowadays.

                  Jordan was getting everything a few year back

                    I was just coming on to say the same! He’s on third and fourth string in those first 2 races!

                    Hes by miles WPM’s second best jockey it’s not even close!

                      Juveniles and Novices hard to tell what the pecking order is - maybe Danny is on the 2nd string and the bookies have it wrong!

                      Dancing City was 4th string according to the bookies in the Lacey last year and look how that turned out....beware the Joystick!

                        I get that but Danny is a far superior jockey to me than Patrick so given that, if the horses aren’t too far apart I’d have Danny beating him 9 out of 10 times imo.

                        On jockey picks though and form going into the race he’s on the fourth string, arguably 5th string given the regard Jasmin is viewed. Same with the juvenile on form he’s on third string. We can only go on the form so far and that’s what it tells us imo.

                        Edit - I’m not saying he can’t win but on form etc he’s not on the second string regardless of what Dancing City was last year as he clearly wasn’t second string given the odds etc. What has he done to be deemed 5th string in a Grade 1 he won last year.

                          He's on the 4th string based on form, but maybe on home work or potential he's on the 2nd string - maybe the different jockeys rank them differently - we don't know.

                          You'd need some further insight into how the yard picks jockeys to know the thinking behind it.

                          Townend obviously gets first pick - beyond that are they allocated or do they ask? Patrick can only ride so many per season, Willie always says it's a good indicator when he chooses to burn one of his pro rides. Others maybe it's down to weight, maybe it's down to style, maybe it's down to owners preference/request, agents getting involved, maybe Danny has seen something in Joystick or Sony Bill that has made him go and ask for those rides.

                          • I presume that Sean O’Keefe simply gets to keep the ride on Lady Vega Allen. From what we could see at Christmas, he gave her a lovely education early before getting her involved slowly. Willie probably thinks they get on well.
