Just to show that it's a matter of horse psychology when losing a jockey, here's the CITY TATTERSALLS CLUB CUP from last Saturday:
http://racing.racingnsw.com.au/Free...Type=FullReplay
Sasenkile throws his rider at the barriers, gives the field 100m headstart, whizzes by them by the 1:05 mark, then stays a few lengths in front for the remainder of the race.
The interesting part is, per his race history, Sasenkile is a backmarker. Was it just demonstrated that his natural racing pattern is as a frontrunner?
