Title: Rider Change
Post by: WestRat on May 27, 2009, 06:55:09 PM
Hi
Haven't posted here before and I'm speaking as someone who is still trying to get to grips with the Thorograph layout. I may be missing it but one of the fundamental things I cant find is: - which jockey was up on previous starts. I mostly do UK racing and one of the big pointers can obviously be a jockey change.
Can someone please tell me if this is hiding somewhere?
     Thanks WR

We don\'t carry previous riders in our data. Basic data like that can be found in the Equibase past performances or the program. We mostly try to give data that is not found in the program.

Used to spend alot of time in Hong Kong.
The South China Morning Post gave weights of horses at time of entry.
It would be interesting to know what Rachel Alexandre and Mine that Bird
weighed Derby weekend, Preakness weekend and now.
