Couldn't win a MR 92 and MR 83 but wins a Grade 3 with Fourie aboard

......read the story in the Sporting Post.....it was a plan to get a small feature for the breeder and Simmons took a ride to get into a bigger stable with more future opportunities....knew this horse had it in her to grab a nice win...... no matter who they got to ride her.....as the breeder says he bought her because she had a cracking pedigree but found out she had a few issues......those were addressed and we see the result......pity I got reduced tote odds on the win.....:S

Is Danielson going somewhere?
If Danielson is staying I can't see Laird making Simmons his number one rider.
He had his chance riding for the De Kock stable.

......dont know or care about jock arrangements but Alec often has more than one horse in a race and if Simmons is available will get opportunity.....I do know that Diane really likes to use Randal but was not available....BTW the swingers were a treat too.....this game is not about jock on top alone..... its about horse power .....a horse with no will or a way to win.... no matter how good Moore Marcus or Fourie are will improve it.....but when you get around niggles and issues you just need some one to just point it.....
