Thanks, that is very helpful. I wonder how he ended up at Gulfstream for one race (and on a first time starter at that).

It's probably a fair guess he has been working horses for Todd to get more experience.

You might remember about ten years ago that two Italian kids were working for Mott and at least one of them rode a handful of races. His name was something like Botti.

he's the best apprentice in England and he's a good jockey for his age.. has no coolmore links to my knowledge..

having a quick scan through his record, his biggest win was probably Dark Missile at Royal Ascot this year. He was also 3 for 3 on that useful but tricky horse The Illies now with Godolphin..
