Lerena doing a runner - grrrrr

8 years 3 months ago

Good luck to him www.turftalk.co.za/gavin-lerena-to-leave...-riding-stint-in-uk/

Gavin Lerena, who leads Anthony Delpech by eight winners at the top of the National Log, told Turf Talk: “The package was kindly put together by racing writer Neil Morrice, we are grateful for his help. I am looking foward to it, it’s hard to leave the SA title three quarters of the way through the season, but I don’t want to regret passing by a UK opportunity. It really is the platform for bigger things.”

Sounds like an amazing opportunity.

Happy for him but unfair on us that have backed him to win the jockeys title. Do we get a refund?

Has to be the pinnacle of any top jockeys career to ride in the UK, especially in such a historical yard.

Hong Kong and Dubai are cool, but are just pants compared to the UK and European racing

I did not have a punt but thought it would be like taking an ante post bet on next years derby winner ?

As punters that took eg delpech at 5/1 ? would stand or subject to big deduction?

Seriously dont know the answer but sounds more logical
