Very well said! Itβs much the same story in Ireland. It only a matter of time before some one get injured while sweating in the car. This could be done in a controlled environment at the races!!!
"Over a third of Jockeys now feel physically and mentally worse. Two-thirds do not support the removal of their job. Three-quarters think the lack of racecourse saunas is a negative. Everyone is π»πΌπ in agreement" π£

@kevinblake2011
I think if you feel so strongly about this
@kevinblake2011
you should maybe become a steward and make a real difference!!!! If not I think your should stick to your job and stop making jockeys lives harder, than what they already are.
Best of luck to Cheltenham Festival-winning jockey Mikey Fogarty has retired from race-riding at the age of 27 in order to pursue other interests. Thanks for the memories Mikey!
Looking forward to attending the Curragh tomorrow to see

βSometimes sports people, and maybe jockeys more so, keep going a bit longer than what they should so Iβm happy to bow out on my own terms.β

Have been on the receiving end more than once!! Itβs called racing!!! I donβt ever recall getting a fall or any partyβs been hurt!! I think people should be left to there job!!! You comming on her will help no one! And or make no difference! βπΌ
@kevinblake2011
I think four days is more than enough!! You donβt know The fax about this. Would you not have to take his record into account. Thatβs what Stewarts do and, thatβs why this is their job and youβre not one.
