Yeah, Gerry,
I would love to reveal the identity of a particular hoop who makes a living by not riding winners...but I can't......!
This hardened character has been "No.2 Banana" to many top hoops over the years and trainers utilize him to evaluate the future prospects of their steeds.
If you study your videos you will regularly spot him back in the field giving his mount "fly squats" in their run to the line.
Yet he always seems to evade the scrutiny of the officials!

Cheers.
