    Post of the year shortlist material from worzelwaywardlad, well played sir.

    Turner has said she will seek rides in the fortnight before the Shergar Cup to get her eye in.

    Fanning the flames from their controversial decision, the Shergar Cup bosses have said that Sammy-Jo Bell’s participation was just a one-off as claiming jockeys make the scoring system complicated and make some owners less likely to enter their horses.

    Fanning the flames from their controversial decision, the Shergar Cup bosses have said that Sammy-Jo Bell’s participation was just a one-off as claiming jockeys make the scoring system complicated and make some owners less likely to enter their horses.

    What possible difference would a claiming jockey make to the scoring system?

    If they keep the prize money sufficient there will be no problem with entries, on that basis maybe some owners are put off more by some foreign riders rather than claimers they are familiar with here.

    Like the reasoning behind the decision not give riders a ride in every race just lame excuses.
