According to my books he has won 8 races in two days. Puts him just outside the top 20 jocks with about 100 rides.

Th next least rides in the top 20 is about 220.

The man is on Fire.

that is uncalled for, HE IS NOT "on" fire. He is completely clean and riding very well.

I have followed Andrews entire career with great intensity and rate him with such legends as Tiger Wright, Cockie Feldsman and more recently Jeff lloyd, M Roberts, Piere Strydom and Anton Marcus to name but a few.

However, Andrew must always remember that to control the horses he rides as important as it is, is not as important as he controls himself.

I hope and pray that he can contnue to do both

HOW WRONG CAN ONE BE!!!!
In fact 2 months back and he is in the top 20 weight problem and all...not to mention a 2 week suspension.....now seems about the time for the pesimists to resign..

Wise what is it with you and Andrew?? You never have a good thing to say about him...he has got a weight problem that he is trying to deal with and he will.....give the guy a break....credit where credit is due...heard that before??

Agreed APL.

And as you say, now he's 'doing it' - and it's all about the 'weight'. . .

No offence Wise, but give the guy a break - we are all Human, how would you like to read such negativity about your good self on a constant basis?

At least he's trying, which is more than most of us (myself included - lol!) do.

Nite, Jim.

Ok will do!now now I said he is a good jockey! But his weight is a problem which he to admits so thats the problem!as a jockey if you cant make 58 you have a problem And I WAS NOT THE FIRST ONE TO BRING IT UP HERE. And yes I asked for his number as a owner in our yard wanted him to ride a horse of his at the time by the way we hue not contacted him once!One thing I love about this site is one gets shot down for disliking a person!let the truth be known not all of you who clam to be his fans are fans! And you know it!
