Hitting your own flank isn't effective for the punter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doomed Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 What happens to someone like Wynne who is put out for over 6 weeks? Do they qualify for the dole or what? You do wonder whether this model works in the current day and age. How can a poorly paid jockey justify the existence if they might get suspended without pay at any time or get injured and be off work for months. All that risk and the only upside is possibly winning a $40,000 race and getting about $1,000 in percentages. And every second week they have to travel for about 8 hours each way to go to work for a few hundred dollars potential return. Its a strange model in the NZ environment.

But that said is it Jockies, Jockey's or Jockey's? Regardless it is rider's plural and I'm taking the piss. But that might be beyond you Pasta.

Don't mention it.🙃 An ellipsis is only 3 fullstops. Also you shouldn't trail off (I.e. use an ellipsis) in the middle of a sentence. Definitely doesn't have an 'a'... Definately is definitely NOT a word. You're welcome. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
curious Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 If you guys would stop jockeying for position and pause for a moment you'd definitely realise that the plural is jockeys not jockies. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
