More likely is that when Sheikh Mo's runner was withdrawn from a big race; Arc I think, Frankie chose to ride the Sheikh's 'arch rivals' runner.armchairclimber said:I wonder if this is why he and Sheikh Mohammed have parted company.

The above I find astounding. Our jockeys get tested regularly, both on course during racing and the stewards also conduct random drug tests of both licenced jockeys and trackriders at trackwork. Word spreads like wildfire when the stewards turn up at trackwork but they get a few. It's pretty hard to hide if they wait for you to come off after working a horse.jamiephillips said:Testing in England seems pretty lax. Once a year jockeys get a breath and urine test by the racing authorities.
I think that is going to be Jamie Spencer. I'd like to see Joseph O'Brien have a go over the fences. Like you say, he's too tall to stay too lightJalina said:The Godolphin/Dettori relationship was already deteriorating before he took the ride for Coolmore. It will be interesting to see if he ends up as Coolmore's unofficial number 1 next season if he isn't suspended. O'Brien's kid won't be able to fight the weight forever and they'll be looking elsewhere.
won't be Spencer. he has already taken the job with Sheikh Fahad Al Thani. Think they will try and get another year out of Jospeh and then go after Ryan Moore.Avoriaz said:I think that is going to be Jamie Spencer. I'd like to see Joseph O'Brien have a go over the fences.
