Weasel Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 I see this former champion apprentice jock in Sydney is in NZ for Karaka Million night and has some rides. Anyone have any views on her riding style/recent form/reputation? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mardigras Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 I've nothing negative to say. She hasn't had the greatest opportunities of late so her recent form may look worse than it is. She's bounced back from difficulty in the past. May just need to get some confidence back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A media report disagrees..do I believe them or you, Thomass? Hmmm...let me see.... Her father John Calvert rode until increased weight brought his career to an end, while her aunty is successful 1980s apprentice Cathy Costin.

SLB2.0 Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 I'm pretty sure I read she got lippy with Gai Waterhouse, which is why you haven't seen her riding in Sydney nearly as much as she used to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She and Gai had a falling out, so Winona transferred to the Snowdens, winning the Sydney apprentice rider championship (2014-15);; apparently she is makig a comeback after some difficult months recently following injuries sustained in race falls (incl 2 broken wrists. Had 2 rides on Karaka Million night; finished 4th in the Concorde (Rikki Tikki Tavi) and 6th in the 2yo feature (Beauty Diva). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
