I reckon "mounting" might be the operative word Bernie.
Yeah wouldn't appear too many reasons why a group of young jockeys would illegally sneak off to an AirBnB after curfew in the middle of a pandemic lockdown. Bizarre behaviour from Jamie Kah given this will cost her hundreds of thousands of dollars in riding percentages over the Spring Carnival.

Yeah pretty odd. Face of racing so she has a lot to lose. Might have been happening a few other times as they were dobbed in by one of the jockey's estranged partners.

Has she been suspended? I know they now have to quarantine for 14 days and have been fined. I reckon racing authorities will trust that two weeks is a long time in news cycles.

and almost against all odds the racing people have kept their nose clean and their barns covid free for 18 months .

I see Kembla is getting another Saturday meeting -- Rosehill shut down?

Jockeys rooting would have to get the whip out wouldn't they?

give 'em a scrub up on the bed and a little look at the whip at the 30second post?

I wonder if jockeys perform better with blinkers on, they're supposed to be very beneficial when applied first up.

How good is Masked Crusader? With his racing style he’s not always going to win, but he’s exciting to watch.
