Craig isn't it time for P to get their own, brand new bus, complete with competant drivers, to try & avoid this sh!t.

I hope both recover fully & soon.

That is a good point flash. But they so tight that I could not see them parting with a few quid for a driver.

craig you worked in the uk - do the jockeys get special transport to meetings paid for by the clubs? Also we know this transport problem has been on going for years - surely the JASA should have protested and enforced change?

Jocks on the whole make the own way to the tracks,but with most young jocks attached to yards they will more likely travel with the Trainer or Horse box.A lot of top Jocks have drivers or as JP and Ryan done car share

Mr H Bob exactly right in what he wrote. They get thier own way there and share lifts or some top guys have drivers. Nothing sponsored that I knew about.

perhaps that's why the Jock's Ass does not get the riders to strike for better service as P might just tell them to catch another bus?
