I wasn’t aware he had caused a horse to lose his rider, I must have just seen the stretch run of that race? I think he was suspended for a couple of weeks earlier in the year? He better get his act together before horses and riders get hurt!

He does need to take a look at his riding. He is aggressive and is the top jockey but he is going to get someone or himself hurt one day.
