Are any others on the forum who follow this incredibly talented jockey,and perhaps share my high opinion of same? I think he is the best rider in Australia. I guess that's a big statement to make with the likes of Beadman,Oliver,Prebble&co,and I guess I will get some flack over it,so to clarify it's my opinion only.Prebble is too hot & cold for me.Oliver is brilliant,but doesn't seem to win many races outside Melbourne.His Sydney record is not real flash.Also because of the high profile oliver & beadman have they get all the cream rides from the leading trainers.I know that Corey gets a lot of rides from the Hawkes stable,but wouldn't it be fair to say that when Darren is in town Corey only gets his rejects?It's common knowledge how critical Hawkes can be of jockeys,so the mere fact that he has no hesitation using Corey speaks volumes about his ability.Five winners last Saturday.I rest my case.
