Hi, course was running very fast today. All winners were up with the pace. There was even a course record set. Coming from behind, as Our Man in Havana tried to, was always going to be difficult with the front ones not stopping.

I did not see the race but consider he is one of our best jocks ever, some comments are a bit over the top IMO

And which S.A. jockey has won MORE than 5,000 races .........only ONE, the blond bomber...believe me they ALL ride bad races, from time to time....even Anton ( not that he rides many squibs )

The mark of greatness? When they have an off day, it's the topic of conversations.
