Thank you for the wonderful memories and the joy you brought to the sport. Such a pity your career had to end this way. You will always be a champion in many people's eyes and you will be sorely missed.

Enjoy the retirement.
Guessing has never been widely acclaimed as a good gambling strategy.

Very sad to hear...all the best with life after this, and hope you are not completely lost to racing Bonjie. One of the greatest we have produced.

Sure he will make a successful new career on whatever path he takes?
(Possibly with horses)?
All the best and thanks for all these winning rides over the years.

Not easy to make an enforced career change when you were very good at your old career .. wish him and his family only the very best for the future.

His ride on Classic Flag in the 1998 July will rank as one of the most astute rides I have witnessed. Drawn in the bush and having been beaten by Flying News in the Daily News in the build up, AD rode a pearler to win easily.
