What did Dittman do on his comeback, who did he ride for?

Beadman came back better than ever, and was instantly snapped up by the trainer.

Beadman is not perfect of course, but I'd be on his mounts any day.

As for slaughtering, I think that's an overstatement of fact. Many of the hotpots he rides should never be hotpots.

Beadman has won big races in Melbourne and Brisbane as well.

If you were Darren Beadman riding a horse in his last race going to stud for big money, you'd claim you were wrong too. A horse simply doesn't get beaten 6 lengths by horses he previously whipped due to jockey error.
Lonhro had had enough.
He'd won 4 group1 races in a row including an Australian Cup.
Darren said he should have gone sooner...Lonhro had no trademark zip left and was under the whip and struggling a long way out.

Had Beadman said that, what do ya reckon Hawksey would have said to him?
