    Agree with Wayne Lordon seriously good pilot. I think Ben Curtis is underrated great young jockey thats only going to get better. Over rated on the other hand Manning and Davy Russell, Murtagh has been terrible this season imo very good jockey but just seemed to go off the boil after he left Ballydoyle.

    As underated jockeys go Wayne Lorden is in a different league.Manning gave the worst ride ever in the Okes cost me very hugh.6 figures.Did not back herin Goodwood.

    Couldn't disagree more about Johnny the gent.

    He's about to be champion jock. If I had a jockey on my horse it'd be him or Mr Fortune

    I doubt the owner of Saigon in the 2.15 at Newbury will be thinking this again after the disgrace of a ride he gave that horse today.

    I dont class Tom as underrated as he is so good .The best jockey in Ireland outside Carberry.My info is ,he is about to get a top job, he is top class.Mark Walsh watch your back.

    I can't help but wonder that if you did have any credible info you wouldn't be spouting it on an anonymous internet forum.

    How anybody can say johnny is gone no good is beyond me he is having one of the best seasons of anybody who's ever left Ballydoyle... Ballydoyle need him more than then he needs them...! Robbie colgan is a massively underrated kid

    Darryl Holland for me. One of the finest pilots of the last 20 years, He just either lacked the ambition or inclination to reach the very pinnacle. Still none stronger, or better from the front than the dazzler. Unfortunately he's a big United fan but you can't have everything!:D

    Holland always had as much ability as anyone but he's gone off the boil a bit in the last couple of seasons, and doesn't tend to get many good rides anymore. Wouldn't describe him as underrated though as he's been around a while now and has had his share of successes but without as you say ever reaching the very top or landing a plum job.
