    Has his success caused the Irish handicapper to change the 200 year old Rules of Racing? Check the new rules by calling the Irish handicapper or any Irish trainer.No good deed goes unpunished in Irish racing.Had Zenyatta being running in Ireland we would have gotten rid of the Fillies and Mares allowance just to learn her a lesson.Will the new rule be known as the King’s Ransom?

    While changing the rules in Ireland to help the regular jockeys compete with the apprentices now riding in Ireland a slew of Irish jockeys were winning in England today(Berry, McCullagh, Murtagh). Does that mean that the Irish apprentices are head and shoulders over the jockeys riding in England? Makes you think.
