I don’t think the talk about his claim was unreasonable at the time. Unless someone was clairvoyant and knew he would ride a Guineas winner when he was 20.
It wasn’t difficult to see this young jockey was good and well above the norm. But did anyone think he would reach the level he had attained this soon?
His first Classic on the board and it won’t be his last. He is the real deal and has time on his side. 17 years younger than Buick and 22 years younger than Moore.
