Dittman made a comeback and did nothing, Beadman made a comeback and was given his old job back - speaks volumes.

How can one be taking unders with a 33% POT at TAB prices, there is also an 8% place POT with all horses under $7.00.

crash, you are spot on that good horses make a jockey look better than they are, and I do agree that giving the mounts to other jockeys would transform them into leading jockeys, no argument there.

But Darren has something a little different. He has a gut instinct on mounts which Hawkes noticed a long time ago. He has something which cannot be quantified and I've only ever seen it in one other jockey - R J Skelton.

Paul Harvey does not have it, he has something else
