Is any other American sick of hearing about K Fallon?

Question

We don't go on about our jockeys like this do we?

Answer 1

This section is for questions in English, it's not the American section.

If you paid any attention to the news in the racing world outside of the US you would understand why there is so much interest surrounding Mr Fallon at the moment.

Apologies if you could not view the link - normally you can view the news without logging in.  I've changed the link now, so try that one instead.

Answer 2

as a American, i think it's sad we don't hold our jockeys like the

sports hero's they are. and you can't compare talamo to Fallon.

Answer 3

lol, I wouldn't have said anything about it, but you do see something about him at least once a week on here.  I think they're as annoyed with us as you are with them...  they're sick of hearing about our horses...  last week i got reprimanded for listing the greatest horses as ManOWar, Secretariat, and Ruffian.

Answer 4

,,,Ding dong i say old chap, are we feeling better now!



Now looking at your question  you seem you be having a go at the English because of an minority who like it to be known that they like Fallon .well here's my reply back,,, American racing is second rate & it sucks .

you do go on about your jockeys::: Stevens / Shoemaker

Answer 5

Yes we do! We all have our favorites, and don't hesitate to tout them. On any racing site you find the statistics of leading money earner...

This case against Kieran Fallon is MAJOR... and it doesn't matter if you are an American, UK, Irish, Japanese or Australian racing fan. This affects the sport of horse racing WORLD WIDE!
