Ryan Moore Even Money To Be Champion Flat Jockey Again
March 31, 2011
Its only a matter of days since the dust settled on the Cheltenham Festival but already our attention has turned to the flat season in horse Racing and in particular the race to become the Champion jockey. Last season we had a surprise winner in Paul Hanagan who took the title from Ryan Moore in a tight battle with Richard Hughes, Victor Chandler believe that it will be a titanic battle once again with Moore a warm order to regain the Championship for a fourth time. In simple terms, the flat Jockeys Championship is awarded to the jockey who picks up the most wins, Hanagan was successful last year as he was prepared to go around the country to pick up any number of rides he could and he will have to do the same again if he is to have a chance of repeating his success.
Moore on the other hand has relied on the ammunition he receives from the Sir Michael Stoute yard in particular and he will always be on a horse with a chance whether that’s in the Epsom Derby or a cold night at Wolverhampton on the all-weather surface. That is the reason behind the short looking price of Evens for Moore with VC Bet while Hanagan is priced up at 7/2 with the same firm to take the title for a second time, and while he faces an uphill task punters can be sure he will put everything in.
The other two names in the frame are Richard Hughes and Kieren Fallon who has made it clear that the jockeys Championship is something that he is once again craving, Fallon is already a six-time Champion jockey but a seventh win at this stage of his career would surely be the highlight. Punters wanting to back Kieren Fallon to be the Champion Jockey on the flat in 2011 can currently get a price of 11/4 with VC Bet, and that could prove an attractive bet for a jockey of the very highest quality. Richard Hughes meanwhile fell slightly short last season and he has stated that he will only go for the title should he be in contention by the time that Glorious Goodwood comes around at the end of July, which explains his odds of 7/1 to be the Top jockey in the UK.
