It’s awful when jockeys have to retire before they’re ready to do so: unsettling mentally as much as physically. I wish him well for the future.

Thanks.

Does anyone know what Choc Thornton is doing these days? Unlike most jockeys, when he retired from riding he just seemed to disappear completely.

Were jockeys unable to correct their mounts for fear of falling foul of the new whip rules?

I really was fearing the worst for Josh. I’m so happy that he’s on the mend.

I would have thought that stable staff were trained in basic first aid?

Does anyone know how Jamie Moore is after his fall yesterday? I keep looking at the racing press but can't find anything.

Was hoping it wasn't that bad; have had a soft spot for Jack ever since I stood next to his mum when he won the Supreme the other year.Very unlucky, injury wise.

Adam Nicol has broken his leg; just when he has the wonderful Lady Buttons to ride and stable are doing so well. Speedy recovery, Adam.

Darn it; family meal didn't happen so we could have gone. Would have loved to have been there. He'll get lots of media work; they were talking about him on W Hill Racing today and saying how great he...

Darn it; would really like to go but tied up on Wednesday [family meal].

Who was the young jockey that failed a alcohol test and couldn't ride a few weeks back? You'd think Charlie Deutsch might have learned something from that. Part of me feels sorry for him but, having...

And remember he has a compromised immune system because of his spleen removal; breaks are still subject to infection.

If he's not careful he will end up in a situation where he won't even be able to work ride after he retires, which would be invaluable either to, say, Mullins if he chooses to work with him, or as a...

Said on racing radio that Robbie Power wouldn't commit himself to riding the horses in England. Seems quite amicable.

Does anyone know why Daniel Muscutt was limping so badly at Nottingham tonight?

Don't forget Timmy Murphy as well....

That's really worrying news about Ryan Moore. I hope it's because he's being extra careful.

Could have been far worse from what I saw [assuming that all will be well with time]. The stall handlers were amazing; all credit to them.

Never been his greatest fan but am really concerned for Ryan Moore and hope that the scan doesn't show up anything too bad.Keeping my fingers crossed for him.

I was really concerned for him; was very relieved to hear the lad was ok [he sounds surprisingly old for one so young, doesn't he, and reminds me a bit of Shane McGowan..or is that just me?].

Difficult situation to be in even if they were years older and wiser. They're a lovely couple and I really hope their future together is a happy one. I just hope the lad manages to come to terms with...

Pleased to hear that.

Thanks for the updates. Still keeping fingers crossed that they'll be ok.
