doesn't SHE deserve more chances in JOHANNESBURG ?

Elvis...could you pass on Nicola contact. Interested in giving her chances and work ride opportunity [paying petrol etc] as our stable jock was lucky to get his contract in Mauritius renewed and we will be happy to give her opportunities...

Well send you mail RAD and thanks (tu)

Good timing, the dad told me the wee lass should do well on Indigo Violet ()

Well done Nicci,stuck you on the homepage!

Nice one Bob (tu)

Sorry for bumping this thread but when she is given a chance she takes it!


3 rides booked this week all at the big hole today,you got to feel for her a bit...

She needs a good agent. Smoeone to do her marketing work and to box for her rides.She rides well enough
LH Prestwood had a good agent and rode 50 winners in a year.. so can she

Hi St Bernard, we discussed this with Nicci last week-end. Yes she does need an agent, but what agent is willing to work with a jock that gets a FEW rides as opposed to the STRYDOMS & Delpech etc. who get 20 rides a week min.

I think the agents normally take a 10% cut on everything........... let's keep realistic here , 10% of 20 rides & wins an places is a darn sight more in the agents pocket than one who gets 2 -3 rides per week. LETS NOT FORGET THE " GIRL " factor in trying to get rides.

It's sad to stay I have a share in a horse & the stable has elected to use THE STABLE JOCK ! next week instead of her.

Nicci has spoken to Lisa a few months back & I believe her old agent isn't interested.

WHERE DOES ONE FIND AN AGENT WHO WOULD TRY & REVIVE HER CAREER ? ANYONE OUT THERE ?

I'm sure you have considered this, but how about some of the retired jocks - Dev, Brett - just a suggestion

c'mon lads a few of you are well connected and must know a few agents, get out your little black books, make a call and let's see if Nicci can get a few more rides.

elvis any thought of nicci relocating to perhaps cape town in the winter maybe pe perhaps?very hard in gauteng with the depth of jocks and a few like delpech and coetzee raiding

thanks Pirates, but she has just moved into her own place with a 12 month lease, so Joburg she is stuck with, for this year at least.
