Irish Jockey Leigh Roche Disappears

By Shaps | 29-Feb-2020

A Mumbai paper reports that jockey Roche left his Mumbai hotel in mid-night of 17th Feb, without informing anyone, including his trainer. He also has not setled his hotel bill, as per agreement between the trainer and jockey.

It also states that his un-satisfactory riding of Valegro, and the serious dis-agreement between them was the cause of his dis-appearence. His present where-about's are not known.

Every body should punish, who culprits the punters. Punters definitely loose if they don't ride genuinely

Very bad decision by rwitc for suspending the top jockeys for remaining season. If the same punishment would have given for the respective trainers as well by rwitc stewards, everyone would have appreciated them ..

What else the jockey will do ? He wouldn't have ridden Valegro with out the specific instructions of the trainer. The trainer to save his skin and his so called CLEAN image complained against him.  Now he ditched the trainer.
