    Sorry that he's injured and all but Noel Fehily has proved that theres no rush in expecting Ruby to rush back, just goes to show that theres plenty of good riders out there that havent even written a book.

    Paul Nicholls himself could ride MasterMinded, Kauto, Silviniaco Conti ect and win, it's getting the best from the lesser lights where a jockey proves his worth. Noel Fehily is very capable but a Ruby replacement he is not

    That was sarcasm Richie. The messiah may have,but undoubtedly those horses weren't up to form.

    Both won last year at Cheltenham under the ride of Walsh...2009 ;)

    Back to the original post there is a world of difference in riding a number of winners over a period of less than three weeks, compared to being consistent through the best part of half a decade. Talk of Fehily in the same breath as Walsh is premature, something I'm putting down to your typical racing fan not being a able to remember more than the last few races.

    What a pity for Noel. I'd give Carberry a ring now.

    I would not touch a Nicholls horse this year if I was a jockey, it's like they are cursed this year.

    McCoy is on Neptune Collonges and also booked for Kauto at Kempton. I just have this feeling that McCoy's type of ride doesn't fit with Nicholls type of horses..
