Callan Watch

A smart man told me...when you dont know what people are talking abt...rather keep quiet...bt ill help you out..

Callan in fact...rode a cracking race to run 4th! The pace of the race was very fast early on...abt 58secs and than 1m30secs faster than standard times for the class...he was lying in 3rd close up to a fast pace...both the winner and runner up were best suited to the race...whereas the 3rd and 4th placed horses both ran crackers staying on well late...another thing: Land Grant hung in in the finish aswell....so he did a good job getting 4th in a race which wasnt run to suit!!!! hope you understand it all...

just as you have an opinion, i also have one... the way i have seen it is different from the way you seen it, that does not make either of us right or wrong, maybe you should listen to the smart man.........., because this is a form for us to have our say..... and i will....

Great to see Callan with another Grade 3 win today

Way to go !

Fantastic well done again

Brilliant...the gamble is paying off.

I wonder how much influence the fact that he was the stable jock for MDK have in him getting decent mounts?

Dont be stupid of course it played a role in getting Callan his break.

What de Kock is not doing is riding his mounts while he makes a name for himself.

I like this youngster and his humble attitude along with the respect he shows. A lot of our more senior jocks could learn from this

probably because he's an ex Jeppe Boy :evil:

Like James Dalton? :blink: :blink:

OTA...read properly what he asked...and ill say again...NONE!!! If you know how the HKJC operates(including trainers and jocks) you would also know this.

also..
the mounts he gets...are far from decent.Most are underdogs

Heinrich dont be an arse. Do you think that if he were a stable jock to Stephen Moffat for example, he would ever have got onto the HKJC radar? Of course having MdK on your CV assisted, what is your problem anyway?
