Frankie Zackey...Definitely not... We felt that Calvin is not riding well at the moment,,whether it's the pressure that's got the better of him we don't exactly know,, riding for a yard where lots is expected surely must take it's toll when there's a few slip-ups...Riding all over the place must also be extremely tiring stressful,, i salute Richard,, Muzi and other that travel... I remember when i was Agent to Weichong Marwings,, he never enjoyed the travelling,, it eventually drains you out...My honest and humble opinion,, if I was Calvin I would take 2/3 weeks off,, the rest and being away from racing will do him the world of good...

If they had no confidence in Calvin Habib why is he riding most of the other stable runners?

There are a few grandstand jockeys in that yard. Calvin has just answered them in the best possible way

Was hacked to post, but did not compare to how it normally goes to post...A jockey cannot make a horse run well if the horse is not up to it...it's what slays me trying to play a P6 or PA...you can see that you don't have a chance when your horse goes to post
