Exactly , you always get a top ride for your money

There are ONLY 2 names for this category and even they are miles apart:

1: BY A HUGE MARGIN

Jimmy Anderson


2: Dougie Whyte

George Duffield

Definitely Van Wyk

Been trying to find Duffields win on Pivotal in the 96 Nunthorpe,man was a legend that day...

If we are expanding our shores would have to be " the long fellow"

Lester Piggott X(

Jockeys from the past I woul choose martin schoeman brilliant on his day!

Martin "Riboville" Schoeman...the original "blond bomber" won the July on what was touted as being the pace maker for stablemate Elevation and Roy Curling..he was a class act

does anyone remember the finish between james maree and martin schoeman between elevation and mast ahoy in the derby at turffontein? if ever two jockeys rode for their lives it was on that day.

(tu) Marty Schoeman was brilliant in a photo-finish...(tu)

its always gonna be the usual suspects in my opinion the likes of Marcus, Delpech, Strydom, Fortune etc.....
take nothing away from the log leaders, but not many of the other Jocks have the opportunities to ride the Igugus, Variety Clubs, Europa Points of the world......take a look at Grant van Niekerks ride in the July on Smanje Manje, that kid is surely heading places in this industry.....
to ride for my life, i would have to say......Marcus if its Joostes horse in a juvenile, Striker if hes in need of cash to buy nappies for a new kid, Delpech if hes trying to show the stable that they shouldnt take away first choice from him and give the mount of ilha bhela to Marcus....< fortune, if hes trying to prove a point that he still has what it takes(which he clearly has)....

jokes aside, i think that the 2 horseman that stands out would be striker and fortune......
