Not sure I agree with the decision...I guess it comes down to the question of which is more important - knowledge of and relationship with the horse or experience with the track. As you said in an earlier post she's not a difficult horse to ride so I'm sure Ted will do a fine job, but I really do feel for Gavin.
Feel bad for him too.

I do like Duncan but yeah..... that's kinda crappy.
