 Re: Lady jockeys
I agree, I don't view the presence of a female jockey as a negative, I think most of the jockeys are much of a muchness together.
Of the women, I think Kirsty is one I've probably done best with and I think she is able. She doesn't seem as widely used now she has ridden out her claim but I think she is just as good as many of the blokes. Cathy Gannon is under rated IMO, I think she is good from the front, like of Wind Flow, she's given that some really good races from the front, that someone like Daryll Holland would be proud of.
I think Turner is a little over rated, although I admire her for reaching the milestone before her injury.
The only woman I avoid all the time is Ann Stokell, she's as bad as Spencer IMO. |
