No one has posted anything about the World Jockey Challenge at Ascot yet, right?

Aussie jockey Darren Beadman will be there.

Any thoughts?
Oh, you should start a thread (or tell me more here)..... I'm a bit behind on the news and got as far as the foot and mouth scare articles this morning.

Who else will be there?

(Oh and thanks).

I've seen his son, Mitchell Beadman, come through on the rail and nail Dad at the wire a few times this last week or so! Mitchell is fearless and patient, riding the short trip and waiting until they turn for home and spread out from the rail, and is the hot jock to wager upon now, no matter the horses odds.

Darren is excellent - he can save a horse and time his run perfectly, to get that nose in front at the wire. Unbelievable. Cool as all get out.
