          • As part of my Hcap planning, been trying to workout the lead horses for various trainers

            One i'm most interested in is Skelton.....not sure be much value, but i think he could land 2-3 of these easily. He's desperate to be Champion Trainer & for them to win that jockey prize too.....and i suspect they have laid out a plot for pretty much every race

            Ones i'm not sure about at mo are following...

            Boodles - ?
            XC - not sure he will have
            Jack Rich Novices - ?
            Kim Muir?
            Martin Pipe?

            If anyone has any ideas? be great to hear

            Thanks

                  • I hope they honour him at Cheltenham in some way, such a promising young jockey

                    • That is beyond tragic to have such a young life taken from his family in such circumstances

                      • What a tragic piece of news to wake up to! I didn’t see the fall but read the race report in the aftermath worrying what had happened. Such a young lad and had the world at his feet. He was so talented, the ride on marine just oozed class in every way.

                        Rest in piece Mikey!

                              Yep. Right decision. Just shows how close the Racing community is in Ireland.

                              • Just waking up to this terrible news, such huge potential as a jockey, and not been able to see him progress over the years is a huge shame. Of course family and friends have lost something so much more.
                                I always tell my friends who don’t really follow racing that these jockeys should win sports personality every year, amazingly skilful and tough.
                                RIP Michael.
