stables do well when he is their jock - I don't know what his personality is like but if I was a Durban stable I'd be calling him asap

YARD HAS 18 WINS THIS SEASON FROM 133 RUNNERS
FORBES 48 RIDES 6 WINS
ZACKEY 53 RIDES 9 WINS
SHEA 7 RIDES 3 WINS

NOT SURE THE YARD COMMITTED TO THE JOCK POSSIBLY CAUSED STRESS

Sometimes you got to listen to the owners.
If they don't want a certain jockey on their horses , there is nothing you can do about it.

I think you need to remember that Forbes road for Howells about 5 or 6 years ago when he won the old Smirnoff with Zenno but all the jockeys seem to think they are gods in this industry and they are important than racing.Duncan comes from a background of notable horse people and with his red hair doesn't take shit from any person.He is paid to do the best for his owners and is a credit to racing.
