World Rankings Ryan Moore vs Marcus vs Strydom

Something for CnC to gloat about.

Ryan Moore secures Grade One glory in Japan

Ryan Moore claimed yet more top-level honours when he guided Maurice to victory in the Autumn Tenno Sho at Tokyo racecourse.

Moore had successfully linked up with Noriyuki Hori's five-year-old for two Grade One triumphs over a mile last year, but, if anything, the partnership looked even more at home over this longer trip.

Maurice bounded into contention at the top of the home straight, after Royal Ascot flop A Shin Hikari had made the running, and was very fine value for his length-and-a-half defeat of Real Steel.

Moore said: "He's a very good horse, he's strong at a mile and very hard to beat.

"He's very strong, he's got a good turn of foot and he was dominant.

"He couldn't have been more impressive. He has a big heart, big lungs and at a mile he could go further so we weren't too concerned about the distance."

Ryan Moore rides in the UK on Thursday, jumps on a plane for a 13 hour trip to Japan then onto a 10 hour flight down to Melbourne and after the Melbourne Cup a 14 hour flight to LA for the Breeders Cup meeting. Thats why he is the best. Dedicated, motivated and success driven. If he were in SA he would ride in every meeting and have the championship won after 5 months.

Moore can win the championship in SA riding at Kimberley every week only as he is light years ahead of any jockey in SA,
