Talk about being a jet setter, he flys back to Hong Kong for this Sunday's Hong Kong Derby to ride favorite Collection ($1.70). Nice and short, but the frequent flyer points Beadman is amassing at the moment, country to country and just riding winner after winner, maybe the true odds for Collection should be $1.20 - $1.30!

Hey Mike,

Yep he really is a great jockey, yesterday i was very hessitant to take real saga at $1.70 because of beadmen riding him as you may know there is quite a difference in the style of races compared to Aus and Hong Kong although he rode the cold perfectly.

Mate what are you kidding lol? I've always said that Beadman is the best jockey this country has seen in the past 20 years.

He sure is i just wasnt sure if he could adapt to the racing style after coming back from HK. Although he had 2 of the best horses in the country to ride, would have liked to see him ride and outsider

Even so mate what are you talking about lol. I dont know how long you've been following racing but do you know how many years Beadman rode here and was successful, before he went to HK? And wouldnt be the first time he's come back to pick up a ride, thats for sure... Knows what hes doing lol.
